Please see my detailed Trip Report posted as a seperate thread in this Forum.

Just returned from a 2 week stay at TBR. This was our 5th stay at this lovely laid back oasis on the north end of the island. The first 5 days saw heavy onshore breezes which made diving ouside the reef impossible becausse of high seas. There were approximately 12 divers at the resort the...

I expressed my concerns way back when this thread was started and since then have been in contact with the resort and I have even heard from one of the owners. I have been assured that I will be able to dive right from the resort as I have in the many past trips I have made to TBR. I first...

Great.... Flights have been booked and deposits are paid. Now I have to start all over again. We have always loved staying at TBR, all the way back to the Pany days. Any recomendations for a simiar place?

My wife and have booked our 5th 2 week stay at TBR in late February 2013. We are again looking forward to many great dives along the reef in the area. Are you saying that we are going to have to travel into town to do any diving? We are also interested in meeting Carlos as we have heard many...

Temperature at the surface was about 80ish and at the bottom varied from 75 to 77 depending on current and depth. Visibility was between 25-35 feet. Have fun - say Hi to the gang from Bill and Pat

Just spent 2 weeks in Aruba. Did 11 dives with JADS, including 3 shore dives (1 Twilight), 5 wreck dives and 3 drift dives. I have nothing but good things to say about JADS. The boat is large with easy wide access ladder off the back. Large rinse barrel for my camera and sun glasses. The most...

Heading to Aruba in Febraury for 2 weeks. We will be staying in a house at the south end of the island (close to Baby Beach). We plan to do about 10 dives while we are there. Having never been there before I was wondering if anyone could put together a list of the best dive sites. We are not...

Make sure you file a report when you get back. I'm sure you will have a great time.

I have been there 4 times. The diving is great. There is a cut right outsie the resort so access outside the reef is really easy. There are some great dive sites at the north end of the island and you never have to worry about large groups. Trips to Hol Chan are easily available and take about...

It happen to me once when I was trying to download my pictures. I think I was trying to push to many buttons at once. To reset it I removed the battery and reinserted it. Everything worked fine after that and the camera has performed great since that incident. Seems to me like it operates...

Here's a link to a weather station on the soutern end of Ambergris Caye. Even has a web cam for you viewing pleasure. Have a good trip Weather Station History : Weather Underground

Great Video. I think everyone who travels to Belize or other countries along the reef should watch it before they go. I have travelled to Belize 4 times since 2006, each time to the same resort inside the world heritage site, and I have noticed a difference. The locals are starting to get...

Very interesting site. It has helped me alot already. I can't wait to get out and try some of the tips. Great job Scott

Yes. I was in the middle of about 12 - 4-5ft Tarpon spinning around snapping pictures. They look so cool underwater, they almost seem to be covered in aluminum foil. All the shots were taken with the DC800 and a strobe. As mentioned before this was my first trip with an u/w camera and it...

Here's a few more taken with my DC800 on my trip to Belize at the beginning of March. As one diver in our group noted the size of the grouper was a DF12. (dinner for 12)

Scubi Do.... Did you hear anything yet? I dug up a really bad photo (overexposed) I took on my last trip and was able to duplicate your pink spot issue while playing with the levels in Photoshop. I was not able to get the pink spot to appear on photos that were properly exposed so now I'm...

Here are a couple of pics from my first attempt at uw photography with my new BC800. I had a blast capturing the sites on numerous dives last week. I'm open to comments but remember I'm a newby.

For my 16 GB card I paid $20.00. Obviously that was a great sale price. I see in my shopping around now that I can't find a 4 GB card for that price. I'm off to pick up the 4 GB card (as a back-up) this wekend as I'm leaving for Belize next week. Yahooooo!

Hey Joe I just recieved my DC800 in December. Would I already have the new version of the firmware on my camera? How do I tell which version I have?
