I tried to get a life insurance policy recently and searched the internet high and low, finding several sites that said they specialize in scuba divers. I had no luck getting the best rates from any insurance company until I found Michael Gray at MEG Financial (877)583-3955 in FL. He's a diver...

My wife is pregnant and wants to snorkel on our Aug/Sept. trip to Roatan. We are aware of CCV reef and West Bay, but we're wondering about any great boat snorkel sites: Are there any great boat snorkel sites, where the reef is not too far beneath the surface? We love snorkeling where the...

Thanks to everyone for so many great posts I've enjoyed as I plan my trip to Roatan for end of August. My brother and I will be diving a lot but my pregnant wife will be relegated to snorkeling. From my extensive reading on this site, I've learned that CCV/FIBR have the best snorkeling on the...

My fiance and I went to slickrock adventure island last year and LOVED it! We are heading back there next week for the full week adventure island. Belize Adventure Travel, Belize Vacations at a Private Island: Slickrock Adventures We HIGHLY recommend it. Everyone who works on the island is...

Thanks for your info--I'll check them out. Now that I've done more research, I think Playa Del Carmen is the best spot for the family--a bunch of kids and adults, with a few divers and lots of snorkelers. Thanks to anyone for more input, even about where to go along the coast. Steve

My family is planning to stay somewhere around Cancun (within 45 minutes of Cancun) and we need a LARGE house to fit 10 adults and 5 kids. Can anyone recommend a place or where I might search? Thanks!

Does anyone know how I can call the USA from Belize without it costing an arm and a leg? Or, if that's my only option (!), what are some of the ways? For example, are there calling cards I can buy in Belize? ATT cellular service?, etc.? Thanks

Thanks Sloop and 007! Your posts help a lot. I agree about going to Ambergris first and then to the Atolls...but it may be hard to do, depending on what day we can leave the US. But I will try to do it that way. I don't miind the Gilligan's Island style, but I'm more concerned about the...

Thanks Sloop! 1) Do you think I would be able to dive the elbow if I'm getting my OW certification and then doing another 4-6 dives? I think it's listed as an advanced dive--I've read great things about it. 2) Does anyone know about the adventure lodge run by slickrock.com at long caye on...

I'm going to Belize in mid April for my first ever SCUBA experience and plan to spend 4 or 5 nights at either Blackbird Caye Resort on Turneffe Atoll or Slickrock Adventures' adventure resort on a private island in Glover's Reef. Can anyone comment on the main differences between these two...

This is my first post to any forum on the Internet. I have been reading many threads on this scuba board for the past week while planning my first scuba trip (I will go to Belize). I'm not yet certified but will do a PADI course in a couple weeks and then do my open water part in Belize. I...
