I have been shooting still's underwater for about 10 years. I plan to buy a Go Pro Hero 8 or 9, a case, tray and lights for our next trip in May. It will be used primarily for filming during some cenote dives. I'm just looking to have fun creating my own videos not anything professional...

We have always stayed and dove with Blue Angel in the past, but this trip we want to rent a condo at Reef Residencias in May and be picked up at the pier for our 4-5 days of diving. Do most operators pick up at San Francisco? We were looking at Aldora and Blue XT Sea.

It's been more than two months since our trip to Fiji. I have finally built myself a website and placed the trip report on it. http://www.belowandabove.com

Will Fiji Airways accept a backpack as personal item? I typically bring one with my laptop/Ipad, passports and items I would need during the flight. Everything I have read leads me to believe they are very restrictive. Their website denotes a personal item as a laptop or a purse.

Question for those of you who have flown out of LAX on Fiji Air. What is the minimum amount of time you would allow between the arrival of your flight to LAX in terminal 1 and departure on Fiji Air in the International terminal? I booked our flight on Southwest with 2:35 minutes between...

One of our friends we're here with lost her camera at the south side of paradise staring our night dive. If anyone happens by it shoot me a pm. Not a really expensive camera, but the pictures are irreplaceable. Thanks.

My wife and I have been looking towards a 20th anniversary trip to Fiji. Our anniversary is March 18th. After much debate I have landed on Wananavu for 7-10 days. Everything I am reading about March weather is rain which will kill visibility. My wife is dead set on doing the trip over the...

I have to be in DC the week of May 12th and was thining about extending my trip for my wife and I to drive down to NC and do some wreck dives. The dives would be the weekend of 17th, 18th and 19th. Is Hatteras the closest to DC that will offer good diving and will there be any problem getting...

We we're there January 27th - Feb 4th. Alot of rain, but great diving. We were there the same week last year and didn't see an Eagle Ray (while diving) or a turtle. We saw both a Eagle Ray and two turtles on the first dive this year.

My wife and I returned to the Horizon this year after a great experience last year. The trip was July 6th - 9th and we dove Catalina and San Clemente. Water temps were unbelieveably warm. We hit surface temp of 70 at one spot and the clodest temp at depth out of 11 dives was 62. I dove...

Need to plan I and my wifes next trip to help get over Cocoview withdrawls. I had been thinking Fiji would be our next big trip, but the idea of traveling that far and spending that kind of cash to get 10 or so dives in isn't sitting well with me. I have turned my attention to Phuket via...

I posted a trip report and some pics in the Central America - Bay Islands forum. GREAT PLACE!!!

My wife and I spent out first week at Coco View Jan 29th through Feb 5th. Mitch and his entire staff made our stay top notch. We were on the Coco IV with the most amazing group of people I ever expect to share a dive boat with again. Add D/M Kirk and Captain Dave to that and this will be a...

I booked a friends airline ticket mispelling his name "Brett" when it should be "Bret". It is for a flight within the US. Does anyone know if Delta will hit me with a change fee to fix it and is the mistake significant enough that it will prevent boarding? Thanks, Eric

Just back from 3 days and nights on the Horizon out of San Diego. It was a Dive Utah trip. Great group of people and an awesome boat and crew. The food was excellent. We dove Santa Barbara and San Clemente. Played with the sea lions and saw an Angel Shark at Santa Barbara and Bat Rays and...

Any previous Horizon divers that can help with a ??. We arrive in SAN at 4:00 pm and the boat doesn't board until 7:00 pm. Any good restaurants or somewhere to hang out that won't take us too far away from the airport - harbor area? This is our first liveaboard and I'm just asuming that they...

I bought a S 600/MK20 used from the original owner about a year ago? I put the 600 with my MK25. I love the 600, but it continues to breathe extremely wet. I had it serviced before 1st use and my LDS scubapro tech said it was a lower model like a 250 or 500 with a 600 faceplate and reccomended...

I just purchased a G-10 and Ikelite case. I'm reasonably proficient on land, but I've never taken an underwater photo. I don't a strobe yet. The first trip out with it will be only snorkeling pictures and video in early June. Would it be reccomended to add a filter before the trip? Also...

Anyone else catch the spot on Travel Channel on ther Crater last night? It was part of most extreme pools. Also had an amazing dive facility in Belgium. It was interestesting, but they ceetainly overhyped the facility. One gentleman being being interviewed went with the "best dive ever"...

My wife and I have been open water PADI cerified just over a year and have logged about 25 dives. We have been to 115' and done night dives. We want to increase our skills and we are about to enroll in the AOW course. We are in No. Utah and the deepest dive available during the course will be...
