My wife and I made reservations at Xbalanque in February. Looks like s great place w small diving groups

Thank you to everyone who responded. I will certainly take a look at your recommendations. We have been to many of the islands in the Caribbean just not Roatan.

My wife and I would like to dive in Roatan but want a really nice place to spend the week. Would consider either a hotel or condo depending on location. I've read that West end is the best place? Appreciate suggestions. Thank you.

Warm water destinations. Mostly Caribbean. Local shops will service all brands. I need an octo w 2 regulators and psi guage. Thanks.

I'm tired of renting regulators that don't function properly when on vacation. What recommendations do you have for a complete setup? I don't need top of the line but want something that is reliable. Will only use for about 30 dives/year. Two one week vacations. Thank you.

Ive had a Geo 2.0 and Veo 1.0 for 4 years. Only have replaced battery at local shop every 2 years as recommended and no trouble. Hopefully, a new battery will last as long.

I want to thank everyone for their input. I'm in the process of evaluating some of the alternatives.

In the market for a vacation bcd that I'll use for Caribbean diving. Looking for suggestions. Will only use a couple of times a year for about 30 dives per year. Obviously weight is important but would sacrifice a few pounds for the right bcd. Tired of renting bcds that don't fit. Probably...

I know ill be shooting both video and stills. So it's the Nauticam housing. This is great information for someone just getting a start. Lense choices are helpful. Can't believe the video you are getting from this camera. I know it's part camera and part shooter.

Again. I appreciate your help. Probably won't buy external lights yet. I think just the housing and lenses will suffice to get started. Do I need the same lenses for shooting stills as video?

Thank you for your replies. The video looks great. Looking to get started so probably will want good housing. What lenses will I need if any?

Looking at purchasing a LX7 for a home camera as the price is around $300. How is this camera for underwater shooting both stills and video? I am new to the underwater world of photography. What will I need to purchase? What are the good cases and prices? What lenses will I need to have? I...

It's been several years since diving in Tobago, but the drive to Speyside is definitely worth it. We stayed on the other side of the island but rented a vehicle and made the trip 2 times in 5 days of diving. Just stay away from the rocks when descending.

Usually dive in the spring, but looking for a fall destination that I don't have to be overly concerned of a washout. It seems like many destinations have more rain in the fall. My wife and I are looking for a week in November. Appreciate comments.

I've used my Geo 2.0 for several dive trips and really like the computer. Is the download cable worth $90? I was going to purchase an iphone app but think that this might be much better for analyzing dives? Appreciate any feedback. Thank you.

Again, great replies. They are booked in March, so looks like April is the month. Was planning on doing the all inclusive, but would still try to get off the property to sample the local fare. Plan on signing up for all the "special" trips (BH and surrounding areas, Glovers and Turneffe)...

Trying to decide which destination for my annual dive trip. I've been to Bonaire, but it was 14 years ago. We dove in Belize (Ambergeis and Turneffe) but not in the south. Never been to Dominica. All seem to be around the same cost. Which will have the best diving? My wife and I are both...

Glad to see that Hamanasi rums a good operation. I have dove the BH while at Turneffe Lodge, but would make the trip again just to dive around that area. Probably some of the best diving that I have witnessed in the Caribbean. Never dove around Glovers, but it sound good also. 10 divers/boat...

Thinking about staying at Hamanasi. This happens to be the top ranked place to stay in Belize. We have dove off of Ambergis and Turneffe. Thought this might be a nice place in the south to visit. My wife won't be diving that much and wanted a nice place for her to enjoy. I've heard the reef...

We're thinking about going back this spring. The diving is so easy compared to many places. We were there 14 years ago and had a maid steal money from our room. At that time, no safe at the resort. I remember there being quite a few fish and many eels. I didn't think that corals were that...
