    Roatan Dive Trip

    CCV has the best snorkeling on Roatan. The front yard and the top of both CCV wall and Neumans wall are great. My wife only snorkels also and she regularly goes out on the boat with us and snorkels the top of the reef, usually very shallow, while we dive. She does the drop off with us and again...

    Crater Lake Closes To Scuba

    It is probably for the best anyway. That dive violated everything you have ever learned about safe diving. It is an altitude dive where you have to pack all of your gear into. When you are done you hike about 800 feet up in elevation while loaded with nitrogen. You have to pack it on your back...

    US State Department Issues Honduras Travel Advisory & Reality

    The mainland and the Bay Islands are almost like seperate countries. Yes, the Bay Islands are officialy part of Honduras, but are not usually affected by stuff like this. Nobody wants to interrupt the cash flow provided by their tourism. If I were going through the mainland, it could cause...

    Quick Report - Crowded Dive Sites

    Hmm, in several trips to CoCoView and several hundred dives there I have never had another boat dive the same site that we were on at the same time. 15 people is about the very max you will usually see on their boats also. Usually it averages about 8 - 12 people per boat.

    Henderson Thermoprene vs. Hyperstretch (long term durability)

    While I can't give any review of the hyperstretch, I do own both the thermoprene and the neosport in 3 mil. I actually like the neosport quite a bit more than the thermoprene. It is quite a bit more comfortable, lasts well (I have about 300 dives on it and the only real wear is a bit on the...

    Great Article on Utila Today in the Washington Post

    A lot of the places for sale were probably investment properties. The increase in value over the past few years has been incredible. Money to be made. If someone was having it a bit bad back at home and owned property there it would be an easy way to make money. I own a lot behind CoCoView...

    How is Fantasy Island BR? New owners?

    They have been seen on the south side many times. It is far more common to see them near Utila than Roatan though. The reef system is shallow on the top on the south side, but the water past that is not. If you look at a map showing depths you will see that it is a very short distance from...

    CoCoview Report Jan 3 thru Jan 10

    Sweet! That makes me homesick hearing about diving the way it can and should be done at CoCoView. I hear about people going to Roatan and doing 15 dives and I think "what a waste of time." This is why I just keep going back. Later, Hawk.

    Trip Report - Cocoview Resort, Roatan, Nov 2008

    It is not uncommon for CoCoView to book up several months in advance. Usually I, and many others, make our reservations a year in advance to get the rooms we want. Contact Roatan Charters for booking. Tour catalog: "Honduras and a Little Bit of Belize" Later, Hawk.

    Sea lice / sea wasps in February

    Good info and advise given above. The sea lice are mostly present from late Feb through April. I have been there in Feb when they were bad. You will know when they will be present from seeing the thimble jellyfish just a few days before the larvae come along. They will look ( the adults)...

    Prince Albert Cocoview Philip Howard question

    Erin, that pic was taken on our first trip to CoCoView by Connie (spiderwebb). Boy do we have some "better" pictures than that. I have enjoyed so many dives with Phil, many of them on the very wreck mentioned here. Each time I go I give a friendly little wave of the water to rinse off the...
