So... its been a crazy diving life for me! After 19 yrs as a diver, I have found the past 10 years have been eventful medically. 10 yrs ago... uterine cancer, cured, cleared to dive again. 6 yrs ago.... mitral valve prolapse... surgically repaired minimally invasively. cleared to dive again...

We were lucky enough to do 2 dives in Grand Turk last week with Oasis Divers. There were only 6 of us on the boat, perfect group size. Ron and I were able to get our diving fix, he shot stills, I shot the videos. GoPro5, Polar pro red filter.... video is right out of the camcorder, only a...

Ron is looking to downsize his camera for several reasons. #1... we just aren't diving as much as before, and it would be easier to travel with a smaller setup. #2...we are diving less due to my health primarily. I just don't have the stamina to dive dive dive anymore, so we are doing...

This video is to show the dive boats. I get very tired of trying to explain the setup. Here you can see we had 1 large boat and 3 small boats in use for the week as the resort was only half full. We are on one of the smaller boats....which really aren't that small. We had 6 divers and a DM...

We were there Sept 30-Oct 7th....rain and rough seas, current the first few days. Shore diving was challenging, and we are seasoned shore divers. It rained while we were in the water one dive, vis was low from all the rain the first few days. The third afternoon, we had sunny skies. shore...

Hi everyone! It has been a long time coming... We finally got a week dive trip, after 3 long years away. Medical issues, long story. Anyhow.... I did do 7 dives, all shallow. Ron got in 14 dives. I will post some more stuff about the trip later, for now here are some videos. I went out on...

HI everyone! I upgraded (from the Hero2) to the GoPro 5 Black this year and these are my first videos with it. I am using only the Polar red snap on filter. I have been shooting underwater videos for 12 years, but have downsized to GoPro for compact travel options. Let me say I LOVE this...

Yes everyone..... we are actually looking at heading back to Cozumel to dive! I know you all need to sit down and take this all in. It has been 3+ years for us. Long story short, we both have had some minor health issues, surgeries, etc. In the meantime, while we could not dive, we did some...

We just got back on Saturday from our Carnival Freedom cruise to western carib. We did dive at Roatan and Cozumel, not Belize. Here is my Roatan video: We booked with the ship....Anthony's Key Resort. We have been to Roatan on 2 land-based dive trips before but stayed on southside of island...

I am looking for guidance and information to give to my rheumatologist, who knows nothing about diving and relations to my lupus treatments. I am otherwise pretty healthy, 60 yr old female, active physically with hiking (6-10 miles a week at altitude) and gym treadmill several times a week...

Just wondering what are dates and if there are daytime activities or just nightime stuff.

We are thinking of booking a cruise the first week of Feb with stops in Nassau and Freeport. How is the diving that time of year? We would like to dive both places. We have dived Bahamas but it was outer islands on a liveaboard 8 years ago. We love sharks but not necessarily a shark feed...

We had a GREAT first cruise. We both really enjoyed the cruise from start to finish, well except for the fact a tropical storm was battering Central America at the time. Oh well, you can't control the weather. My trip report: <FONT FACE="kRISTeN ITC">Carnival Magic, Trip report & Photos...

Just got back from a Caribbean cruise and snorkeled one day in Belize. They called the site "Gallows Point", not sure where that is but is was a shallow 10-15' depth area around a small island. It was rainy all week, so vis was not the best that day, and we had intermittent showers, but my...

My husband and I have never been on a cruise. We are usually dive dive dive maniacs, done a few liveaboards and lots of land-based dive trips over the past 14+ years. BUT this year my husband had major surgery on his hip (not a replacement, but still major bone and muscle repair). For that...

Palancar Horseshoe.... yes, I know it is a spike in the coral, but what for? Anyone know?

Trip Report is mostly done, I need to go back and add some text as I remember things (didn't take notes each day this trip for some reason). LOL http://www.rnrscuba.net/2014_Cozumel/2014_COZ_TripReport.html Lots and lots of photos underwater and topside. I tried to take more topside since...

Before I broke my housing, I got in 4 1/2 days of diving. Here is one of my finished videos. 95880147 using red filter, some white balancing in editing robin

We really are looking at a long weekend trip out to Catalina this summer! The past few years something has happened (injuries, work issues, etc) but this summer is looking good for a trip. We have only done boat trips from the mainland (Great Escape x3 times) so this will our first land-based...

Here are a few more dives, turtles turtles and sharks.... 95880147 best if you start the video, then stop it and let it LOAD completely before starting again. Also to make it full screen and HD, click on the buttons for that. FYI --- After my dive #11, I smacked the front of my housing on...
