Quiet. Weightlessness.

Do a search on this forum for Christi's restaurant list...mmmm...

I had trouble with mine when I started diving. I had a lot of pain and I couldn't hear very well the next day after my first pool session. I went to an ENT to make sure all was ok before continuing. It all checked out and I started to be vigilent about taking my allergy medicines. I also use...

We did several "twilight" dives in November when we were there - I think about four. I'm sure by now everything is cool.

There are. Go to Louisiana much? (They have a great track record for fairness and lack of corruption, too.)

Playa del Carmen would be a great idea. You could split your trip and stay in both Playa del Carmen (PDC) and Cozumel. If you do this, put more time in PDC and a few days in Cozumel. For seeing ruins and villages and the like, PDC is more convenient. For diving and eating yummy food, Cozumel...

I've mentioned this before, but I think it bears repeating here: We went soon after the hurricane: November 26, 2005. We stayed at Caribe Blu and it was fine. We went to the Caletta to board the boat -- no big deal, wouldn't hesitate to do it again. (Its just a small harbor.) On a personal...

Can I add La Candela? We found this place to be very good and very affordable (food & coffee/coke for the two of us $8 u.s.).

There is a grocery store. Are fish off the menu? (beans will have lard; tortillas will have lard; I did have a mushroom ravioli at Prima's...that could be somewhere worth trying.)

A friend of mine went to Jamaica earlier this year and was disappointed. She reported that it was damaged and not very spectacular. (Not sure which sites she dove.) Of course, Cancun/Cozumel is beautiful...

You know what that means? No high maintenance people in Cozumel! Now that sounds like a perfect holiday. :)

Diveborg is right on the money. I would just like to add that the housekeeper did our laundry.

Just do it. You've found something you love. Enjoy it. The worst thing you could do is allow someone else's lack of manners (or, worse, their potential lack of manners) keep you from what you want to do. As for wetsuits, there are custom suits...a great many people of all sizes turn to these...

My first night dive was in Cozumel in November. We actually dove at twilight on our first night dive. That helped make me less nervous, since it was still light when we entered the water. We saw an octopus, which was our main goal. We also played around with the bioluminescents on our safety...

To the original question, we dove in November and it was great. I would go again this week if I could. As for CO, it was fine for our trip in November and the only airline flying to the island at the time -- all others having cancelled all flights. (We would use Continental anyway, since we're...

I don't know if they're doing this still, but our dive shop footed the tab for us to get to the Caletta. (I would understand if they couldn't do this forever.) It was not a big deal at all boarding the boat at the Caletta. This is not the sort of thing that should stop people from diving -...

And for anyone who needs to know, we got on boats at the Caletta during our trip in November. It was not a big deal at all and having to do this should not keep you from going on your trip.

We were there in November right after Thanksgiving. Sure, there were buildings that were trashed and blown out. I expected some distruction, so I wasn't that surprised. But everything was clean, not all rebuilt and pristine condition, but clean. The island was ready for people to come, eat...

We did our classes together and there were no issues. I agree with those who say it depends on the people involved.
