    "When do we get to go diving again!?!" That's the question on the minds of every diver throughout our community as we are all reeling from this pandemic. For our part, my husband and I started our little Riviera Maya diving BnB so that we could create a comfortable "home away from home." We...

Our little slice of heaven is located almost halfway between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, and although we'll cater primarily to cave...

    Insole Confusion

    I've decided to give the Fusion booties a chance, since the Evo rockboots aren't working out too well. Only thing is, is that the whole insole business is a bit confusing. I understand that the insoles are supposed to go inside the drycore sock, but the booties came with two insole-like...

    NeoTek Semidry: Also For Girls?

    I'm in the market for a new 7mm wetsuit or a semi-dry for the Mexican caves. I like the look of the Neotek Semidry, and it also seems very reasonably priced. However, I've only heard reviews by men (glowing reviews, at that!). Likewise, the only folks I've seen wearing it are men. I would like...

    Seasport Divers For A Great Ni'ihau Dive Trip

    Just wanted to give a big shout-out to Seasport Divers in Kaua'i - we did a three-tank dive trip with them this Saturday to Ni'ihau, and they were terrific. We met before sun-up at their Poipu shop, and the crew had a muffin-and-juice breakfast laid out for us as we steamed across the...

    Oxycheq Mach V 18 lb wing or DSS Torus wing (17 lb)

    OK, I'm going to try this again. Does anyone have an Oxycheq Mach V 18 lb wing or DSS Torus wing (17 lb) they want to offload? I tried posting a similar ad. a month or so ago, but one or two subsequent posters looking for the same Oxycheq wing got responses over me. Yes, I'm playing the pity...

    City council rejects proposal to ban shark tours

    I am pleased to hear that the city council killed the proposed shark tour ban. Please don't get me wrong - I'm all for seeing critters in their natural habitat and not upsetting the natural balance of things by feeding them - but it seems this ban could have had far worse-reaching consequences...

    Disturbing rumour about making Shark's Cove off-limits to divers

    At a meeting of dive shop professionals on Oahu a couple of days ago, I believe news broke about an intent to make Shark's Cove off-limits to divers. Seems that surfers have been complaining that dive operators and students take up too much parking (especially operators' vans and the like). Or...

    Cave diving in Hawaii?

    I'm seeking information about cave diving in Hawaii. Having obtained cavern/basic cave certification in January 2009, I want to build experience before furthering my education. Traveling to Akumal/northern FL is relatively costlier and more time-consuming than when I lived in the Northeast, so...
