I am currently living in Mexico City working at the US Embassy. I go on a big scuba trip about every 6 months. As you all know 6 months of no diving can make you a bit rusty in certain areas, especially buoyancy. I have been looking for somewhere nearby that I can PRACTICE a couple times a month. Veracruz and Acapulco are a 3-4 hour drive so I would most likely need to get a hotel, and hire a dive boat, and the diving in those places is just OK. I'd rather save my money for big dive trips.
Anyway, I think I found a place. It is called Las Estacas and it is a one hour drive and is in Cuernavaca. It is a river and lagoon that is fed by a natural spring so the water is crystal clear. They shot some Tarzan movies there in the 50's. Apparantly several people practice their diving in the lagoone there.
Now my question. While the lagoon is crystal clear and beautiful it is only about 25 feet deep. That will be sufficient for me to keep up on my basic skills but should I log those dives? If I do then my log book is going to be filled up with 25 foot dives.
What would you do?
