Hello,
I was originally certified and did a family dive trip to Cozumel 25 years ago as a 17 year old. I recently got re-certified with my 18 and 16 year old sons and we did 2 dives on a family vacation to Costa Rica earlier this summer. My wife and 12 year old stayed on shore while we dove. Now my 12 year old is itching to go, so I'm getting (re) re-certified with him next month (August).
We would like to plan a family trip in December over Christmas break. Looking for recommendations for a good dive destination that will be good diving for a 12 year old recently certified diver, and will be fun for my wife, who has no interest in diving but is happy to go hang out in a beautiful location.
Any suggestions? We were thinking Grand Cayman or Turks and Caicos, but open to other suggestions! My parents (who dove for 10 years after our original trip 25 years ago) suggested Bon Aire, but I'm worried that would be good diving for me and the boys but less fun for my wife.
Thanks for any ideas.
Jeff
