I would like to thank everyone from Scubaboard that has dived with me and my great staff over the last 2 3/4 years. When I first moved to Mexico 6 years ago I started Diablo Divers and provided personalized service to divers who were looking to avoid the large operations where they are just...

Congratulations to Henry Watkins for placing 2nd in the DiveRite photo contest with a photo taken at Dos Ojos. Henry who despite the anglo saxon name is Mexican - Scottsman in the wood pile a generacion or two ago - works at Dos Ojos where he and his girlfriend take photos of divers and...

I am going to do my best to post a description of a different cavern dive from the Mayan Riviera each month until I have covered them all. What I would like others to contribute to this thread is your experience of your visit to the cenote and any photos you may want to share of the cenote...

On last nights night dive we came across this interesting looking fish that looks like a cross between a Toad fish and a Scorpion fish. Does anyone have a clue to what it is since I can't find it in any of my ID books? Thanks Dennis

I log onto Scubaboard today and check out the latest threads. After scanning the list of the top 10 I thought I was on the wrong site, but I did notice "purge mask" was in one of the threads so I thought maybe I am in the right place after all. I remember when I would read all the threads...

New to Adventure Travel... Long time in the area. I would like to offer a special to all Scubaboard Users to kick off a new and different way to dive the Cancun/Playa del Carmen/Tulum area. I will be offering 2 for 1 pricing or 25% discount for singles on all of our packages booked before...

I'm sad to report that a fire destroyed homes and businesses during the early morning hours of Friday February 13, 2004 in the small community of PaaMul, Q Roo. ScubaMex, which has been in business in PaaMul (located 12 km south of Playa del Carmen) for over 10 years was burnt to the ground...

If you could open a dive resort anywhere in the world, where would it be? I am thinking Mexico, on the Yucatan. But maybe there are already to many resorts there. West coast of Canada, has great diving but it's cold water. Red sea, to much political turmoil. Greece, cold winters lead...

Did you plan or are you planning a special dive for those big milestone dives like #50 or 100 or 150 or 300? For me # 50 was to be a cool dive, I was planning on doing a submarine off of South Carolina, everything was set, so I thought. I showed up in the morning and found the boat but no one...

I was just wondering if anyone bothers to dry out their Wet Notes book or just let it sit and take care of its self? I typicaly wipe of the each page before storing my gear after a dive trip, but it seems silly to do this. Maybe I'll live on the edge and pack it away as is. Pez

My first dive of the year was last weekend in Waterton Lake. Waterton is located in the South West corner of Alberta and borders on Glacier National Park in Montana. Dives in the lake typicaly take place in 4 locations, Cameron Bay where the depth reaches over 100', Emerald bay where an old...

In addition to Scuba, I have noticed that most people have listed other “adventure” sports as hobbies. I’m interested in how many divers are also cavers. Me, I’m a caver turned diver. I found a good thread that helps explain a cavers obsession with caving: Why Cave thread Let me know...

I have started to ignore my work. I log on to the board a dozen times a day to see what's new. My wife says that I have changed in the last month. I know she is wrong. My goal in the month of January was to have 50 logs, I don't need or want that avatar, it's just to show my support for the...
