As some of you may know, I prepared a chart of the “best ops” in Coz, located in another thread, mainly with the idea of letting my traveling/dive buddy pick the dive op(s) for our trip at the end of the month. A few weeks ago in a non-moving motorcycle accident, he broke his ankle, had a plate and screws inserted, and will not be able to dive (but can at least travel.) A few years back, he left me hanging on another trip, when he went and suffered a heart attack a couple of weeks before a trip. Since my wife had to give up diving several years ago, I’ll be on my own - except for the group and insta-buddy I may have.
Okay my real question is: Week 1, we’re staying at Coral Princess on the north end which has Pepe Scuba as the resort op. If I choose to dive with them, I know there will be 50 min boat rides to the dive sites (last time I stayed north, I took a taxi to the south.) Thinking of doing a few more shore dives - anyone with any knowledge of the area by the Coral Princess as to whether or not a shore dive is worth it?
Week 2, we’re at El Cid la Ceiba. I believe there are a few areas shore dives can be done in this area, but if anyone has knowledge of something decent, I’ll take it. I’m just looking for something to maybe get wet and not spend a ½ day, so I don’t feel too guilty being away from wife and friends!. Their on their own when I’m on a boat!!
