    In case you get lost... Fair chance you will be found using Nautilus Lifeline

    Legal or not I know for a fact that dive ops both in Cozumel and US use the VHF to communicate with their land bases. I won't name the op but one used my Nautilus and called their land base but it was from the boat :D. The Nautilus does have two channels you can preset. One is for emergency and...

    In case you get lost... Fair chance you will be found using Nautilus Lifeline

    In Mexico or US? I guess the dive ops talking to their boats are in violation unless they are standing on the dock

    In case you get lost... Fair chance you will be found using Nautilus Lifeline

    You can use the Nautilus on land but only VHF equipped parade floats, any boats with VHF that are awake and the marine police types can hear you. They would probably scratch their heads when they got a distress signal with GPS coordinates at El Moro. They would be expecting a boat but the...

    Dive/Accommodation Advice

    We have stayed at Scuba Club, Casa del Mar and Coral Reef Inn, dove with Scuba Club, Blue XTSea and Dive Paradise. All of them met our expectations or exceeded them. Each resort and dive op seems to have pros/cons depending on your desires. I recommend you read reviews on each one and pick one...

    Funny diving stories for the book I should write....

    Montezumas revenge at 60ft is no fun and yes it happened while diving with BlueXTSea. I don't think anyone knew what was going on until they got back to the room and I had the bathroom door bolted. Divemaster asked my wife "whats going on" when I bailed off the boat as soon as we hit the pier...

    COOKING in Cozumel - where to stay?

    I also suggest Coral Reef Inn. We have stayed there before and are going back in Feburary. The outdoor kitchen has a roof over it and is a full kitchen. Jerry & Leona have it stocked well including all pots, pans, utensils, etc. There is a full size refrigerator with a labeling system so stuff...

    Cozumel Airport Pickup Location

    Thanks for the replies and clarifications. I will tell them to come out like they always do and I will meet them at the door or right inside. I have flown in several times but its always been such a rush and dodge the shark game that I haven't every really noticed anything concerning the airport...

    Cozumel Airport Pickup Location

    Thanks. I looked at that but not sure what spots they will allow me to drive into. I did a search for airport maps but the ones I found really didn't indicate a place where you could pick up passengers. I can't remember if I ever saw anything other than the collectivo or whatever the vans are...

    Cozumel Airport Pickup Location

    The wife and I are going to Cozumel a couple of days ahead of our kids due to scheduling issues. I am renting a car at the airport and plan to pick it up on arrival. Since we will have the car my plan is to pick them up at the airport when they arrive. I want to tell them before we leave where...

    February 2013, The most awesome, coolest list ever!!!

    Hate we are missing yall but we had to go when the kids were out of school. I may leave the mankini hanging in your room but even if I don't I'm sure the place won't be quite right when we leave. Maybe we can catch yall next year

    last minute trip to Cozumel

    Since its last minute and you dont' have much time to plan I would recommend Scuba Club Cozumel. They will totally take care of your eat-sleep-dive needs and would be a one stop shop. If you were a repeater or had more time to plan then I would suggest something different but SCC would be an...
