I dove with AquaWorld and it was not a bad experience. There were 15 people in 3 groups of 5 divers. The boat was huge and very comfortable and the DM was very accomondating. I saw 15 people and instantly thought cattle boat but it was not bad. I dont have a lot of dives (16) but We were...

I cant say for sure about Sept but late August was great. Hardly any people and the weather was HOT. Chock Mal cenote was great! We aslo dove Paradise wall where I saw a huge grouper and a turtle. Hope this helps

Just more confirmation. I had the open Ruen-y and I dove after 4months and had no problem at all. My Doc is also a diver and the only requirement that he had was I had to give him a dive report on the Cavern dive ! It was not related to the surgery he just wanted to know how I liked the...

I tried to use the search function but it does not seem to work today so please no flaming! I am going to Kauai over Thanksgiving and some of you guys mentioned Bubble Below and Dive Kauai and I appreciate your help! I got great response from both. But I was wondering if there are any...

How deadly are rock fish? I went diving in Cancun, Playa, and Coz and saw several Rock Fish. The DM explained that they were poisonous but I was wondering just how poisonous they are. Thanks in advance.

I am in the same (dive) boat as you and I bought my mask, fins and snorkel while taking my confined water classes. I then went to Cancun for my referal dives and got a uncomfortable BC. I went back to my LDS and got one of the rental BC's. I did this because of comfort and familiarity with...

I dove Playa and Coz in mid august and it was great but a little warm. I am from CO. so the humidity was a big change. I tried Tank-Ha and I was disappointed with the response I got from talking with Wolfie. I wanted to do a morn and afternoon dive but he kept on insisting that because I...

Just came back from Playa and we dove with Aquaworld. We did a cenote dive and it was great. We had a total of 6 divers. They have many Cenotes in that area and the one that we dove was called Chock Maal which I highly recommend. Have fun Let me know how Akumal turns out. That is...

I used to goto Grand Turk(1982 timeframe) when I was alot younger and had no interest in diving. The was a military installation on that Island that supported launches from Cape Canaveral. Is that the same island that I hear about on this board. If my memory serves me it was pretty desolate...

I just came back from Coz and there were a bunch of people on my dive that were from the Cruise ship. The company was Aquaworld and they ran a nice efficient operation but were not very personal. We dove santa rosa reef and paradise wall. I was very concerned at first because the boat was...

I did my Open Water dives at Solo Buceo and they were great. The reefs that we dove on where really close and fun. just MHO

I am going to Mexico (Cozumel) and I wanted to know what to tip the Divemaster, the boat Captain, the guy who puts my tanks together.. etc. I dont want to appear cheap nor do I want to appear as a total greenhorn. Thanks

You might want to check out the El Presidente again. I got qouted a great rate from MLT or something called worry free vacations.

Can you elaborate on what kind of problems. The stings and coral are something that I did not take into account and we did not do any drift dives so I am not sure how my bouyancy control would be on a drift dive. I do remember that I was extremley hungry after diving and my air consumption was...

Is it like a cave dive. Can you see the surface at all times? If you only have open water cert can you still partake? Thanks in advance!

Just got certified and I got the bug bad! It was my wife's idea but It was one of the best experiences I have ever had. I will be asking dumb questions from time to time. We will be heading out on our second trip this Friday. This time it will be Cozumel. Regards

A question from a newbie! I just got certified last April and I did not use a wetsuit or a skin and I felt fine but everybody else on all 5 days of diving were wearing wetsuits. I was to ashamed to ask but if you dont get cold is there a valid reason to wear a wetsuit or skin. I am leaving...
