The cenote dives are definitely a dive you will remember. I highly recommend not only setting aside time to do this dive but also for using www.hiddenworlds.com.mx The dive Dos Ojos cenote. The staff there is top notch. Very professional and a safe operation. Not to mention the view!

Nope, AA told us tough luck. They are not flying us in and the best they could do is give us a voucher not a refund. As for the insurance, that would have run 69.99 and the cancellation is $100 so that'a only a $30 difference. I wanted to apply that credit towards a vacation in a different...

Hi All, We had a dive trip planned to Grand Cayman the end of October. As did many areas, Grand Cayman got hit very hard from the storm. Our hotel suffered sever damage and is closed at least until November. I think the roof is on its way to Cuba somewhere and the Jamaican Bobsled team is...

Because of Bob3's recommendation many moons ago, I checked into the Posiedon. I was one of the very first to purchase Poseidon's Atmosphere Full Face Mask. It is very similar to the AGA. We have done some serious diving together in many different conditions - I love it and wouldn't trade it...

In fresh with an AL80 and 3/2 full I was 14. With the PST E780 I am between 10 & 12 pounds. Both wearing a 3/2. Hope this helps.

Another shore dive not mentioned is from Chankanaab National Park. It's an easy but very enjoyable dive. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Hey RoatanMan, Thanks for the heads up but the trip is only the last 3 days of October and the first several days of November. So I think I'm pretty safe. I learned that one about 8 or 9 years ago :) After the 3rd - 4th week of October passes the odds are pretty good. But I do appreciate the...

To everyone who posted a reply, thank you. I will start with Rich - No, you didn't bug me. far from that. The suggestions and advice from this board is great and I am always open to ideas. I have in fact I have a friend who lives there and offers me to stay there whenever I want. from...

Hi Everyone, We are planning a trip for late October. The dates are already locked now all we have to do is decide where. I asked my travel agent to get quotes for three destinations: 1) Mexico 2) Cayman 3) Bonaire The Mexico trip we do twice a year and when we do Mexico we also...

Hey Mavjax, If you want to combine the ruins and diving, a good way to do it is rent a car, drive south on Highway 307 to the ruins in Tulum. Get there as soon as it opens, visit the ruins for a few hours, then head a couple minutes up the road to Dos Ojos where you can do a safe but fun...

We were diving off Isla Mujeres back in May and had about a 2-1/2-3' barracuda sort of shadowing me. Nothing overly aggressive and although they have been present at many other dives I have been on, something about this one made me uncomfortable. I don't know if it was a territorial thing but I...

Thanks, I will go check out that link right now.

Hi all. We will be in the Ocean City, MD area next week and wondering about taking our gear or not. If we were to dive she would be more comfortable with a nice, easy novice dive. Shallow, not too strong of a current. Can anybody recommend a few sites for beginners within say an hour's drive...

HUH? I am not sure why you quoted my post and then corrected me stating the tank was 3442 not 2640. You must have my post mixed up with another.

For what it's worth, I love mine.

Hmmm.... You still may want to call around to other LDS and double check that price increase. I occasionally buy some stuff from LP. They are good for some things, however, there they lack the customer service of a LDS. The tanks from LP are shipped empty. And if I am correct, they are...

I have to agree with Cancun Mark on this one. As a Cancun veteran, I am not concerned about the warning at all. If the State Department is worried about crowds and violence they would be better off warning people to stay away from the malls in the US during prime Christmas shopping days!

It's a bummer calling/aborting a dive but it's also a sign of a smart diver. Dive within your limits. I agree. You made a good call.

Its not a common trip and you will most likely need to get your hands on gear and hire transportation like a charter to get you there.... but from what I hear it is a great spot to dive. I have some friends that are dive instructors in the Cancun area and in the late summer there have been...

Check out Abyss Divers and tak with David. They have a dive shop right at the entrance to the Tulum Ruins. No need to leave the wife stuck in the hotel (unless of course that means she is hanging out at the swim up bar). She can maybe explore the ruins while you explore the waters just beyond...
