Thanks for suggestions. I’m not on Tmobile. Going to try Airalo. Seems to be reasonable cost and lots of good plans globally.

Heading to Cozumel later this month. I have no experience with eSIM providers, Mexico telcoms or Mexico for that matter. Any recommendations? Thx.

Sitting in a bar, having a drink and a smoke, MOF, looking so manly and cool. It’s why I joined “the set”. 😆

I always wonder where the juvenile or newborn critters are-e.g. turtles, eagle rays, sharks, morays etc. I saw a tiny hammerhead once, roughly 15 cm or so but it was on my fishing lure Naples Fla.

This is an excellent, detailed spreadsheet that lets you easily estimate a starting weight based on various configurations of exposure suit and tank type. Developed by a sharp Scubaboard member. https://scubaboard.com/community/threads/optimal-buoyancy-computer.576321/

Another couple of benefits of a Peregrine are unmatched customer service compared to any dive product company. The 2 button user interface is so simple and intuitive you could probably figure the basics out on your own sitting on the couch. I used to have Suunto Vyper 2 and zoop, very...

As mentioned earlier, you can buy the TX alone. https://www.scuba.com/l/?searchinfo=tern

Well controlled and trimmed.

Heading to Coz later this winter and cenote dives may be of interest time permitting. I’ve never dived in one. Looking at online videos some cenote dives look relatively safe - more like a big upside down bowl with overhangs or crevasses - so there is access to the surface, e.g. Casa cenote...

Interesting idea… I’m going to try it.

Do those airport shuttles pick up from the main hotels for return to the airport? Also what zone is Hotel Cozumel and Resort in?

Seems far larger than Grand Cayman. Shouldn’t there be enough cash sloshing around to make the tap water drinkable.?

.. I carry a refillable water bottle with me when I travel.. may as well use one with a filter. If as it seems there are big jugs of water in lobby’s etc. I’ll refill from and filter that supply. No telling what kind of biofilm/gunk may be inside the spigot. It’s like double masking 😀

I’ll be using a purifier/bottle on top of provided purified water. Redundancy.

Sort of off topic but with Cozumel being the giant tourist/diver destination it is, why is the drinking water system so “crappy”? Why no investment in infrastructure?

Heading to Coz this winter. As I avoid buying or consuming bottled water if at all possible I’m considering buying a purifier and using it with tap water. Any suggestions? The Grayl purifier looks good

Excellente. Mucho gracias senor….

Having not been to Coz before and heading there this winter what’s the easiest transfer from the airport down to Hotel Cozumel? Taxi or shuttle? Can you easily get a shuttle when you deplane or best to have travel agent pre-book? Thanks.

Have you looked at the Optimal buoyancy calculator spreadsheet posted on this site created by a site member. It’s a very detailed and useful tool to give you a ballpark starting weight recommendation for exposure suit, tank and BCD scenarios.
