Cuba?

.....more top-side variety for non-divers and between dives.

Yeah this is definitely a point against Bonaire. Unless you like SALT. If you like salt you could probably amuse yourself. I have unfortunately had to pass on a couple Bonaire weeks because there was going to be non-divers present and I could not in good conscience tell them they would have things to do for a week. Oh well, 3 weeks from now and it is just us (divers) and the waters surrounding Bonaire.

Hello friends,

I'm going to Cuba in February 2009 for a holiday with my family. My wife and I myselff are eagerly waiting for good dives there.

Could You help me and tell
- Are there some dive spots which were suffered badly by hurricane Ike?
- We have 1 star CMAS diving licences (allows us to dive 20 meters). We like more fishes and corals, not necessarily so much about wrecks. Which spots are the best?
- Put the next three in order: Maria la Corda, Cayo Coco and Ancon / Trininad. Which is the best, which is the worst?
- Is it better to bring our own diving equipment or can we easily hire good and safe equipment there?

Warmest greetings and best regards from cold Finland!

Olli

I have dove in the Bay of Pigs and the equipment provided was excellent. I don't know if this says anything about the rest of Cuba though.
