    Trip Report Cozumel Real Time Review

    Very nice video, and music is sooo soothing, felt like I was your dive buddy. I know Coz pretty well, but do know where this wreck is located. I am guessing on the the Windward side?. Seemed like it is a shallow dive so you can cruise along without deco worry?? Bob C. AKA 500psi

    Urgent! Have DAN insurance; Generali demanding upfront payment b4 providing medical evacuation

    Yes I purchased Travel Insurance noted below for a Cozumel trip 9/2020. Had an unexpected medical problem that forced cancellation of dive trip. Long story short, Gererali refused payment of the claim. Close review of pages in the policy had clear ambiguities in the document & therefore...

    New Room Tax ??

    Love these posts and will still be going to dive and vacation in beautiful Cozumel. How about we just call the collection of the all travel fees, room and sales taxes, and other crazy hidden charges the new norm or simple VUDO ECONOMICS.

    Planning June, 2018 Trip to GC - Suggestions?

    First, the winds are an issue on the East and North shores, but I believe they do subside in April and May even into June but that is all I really know. I don't think diving the East Shore is a problem in the later months of spring and probably into summer. It is far better than diving the...

    Planning June, 2018 Trip to GC - Suggestions?

    Just returned from a 9 day stay at Morritts Resort first week of April. Really nice property and we loved the three pools and many nice people we met. It may have been very lucky to book a unit as a guest in April since the property is actually operated as a "floating timeshare" with...

    first timer - is it common doing 4 dives a day in cozumel ?

    RE: 3 P's question. Jeanie set up my reservation via email, I did not meet her. Cathy is in charge of the daily dive shop operations and works directly with customers. Both are good contacts I would say.

    Tres (3) Pelicanos is the dive op that is a most excellent choice. They really know how to select the best dive sites for the day, simply outstanding. Most professional DMs and they make it fun. Full service, DM handle all your gear, full set up in boat, and wash after dive for next day. The...

    Bayahibe Dominican Republic Diving Report

    Caravel Ships do come into La Roma, which is maybe 15-20 miles north of Bayahibe on the same bay. There is also an airport there. The roads are limited in DR and probably difficult and time consuming to get north to Puerto Plata, since there is mountain range down the center of the country...

    New to Diving. Going to Cozumel and Grand Cayman.

    Probably my lucky day. Dove the east shore in mid March after winds died down. Our dive group was surrounded by a school of least 12, six to eight+ foot nurse sharks moving in from deep water onto the reef . Awesome GC dive.

    Bayahibe Dominican Republic Diving Report

    Forget the north shore, to much surf and poor vis, its a tourist thing, not for SB divers who mostly know what they are doing and follow the rules of diving. Call Sue at Scuba Fun if you want to do some nice comfortable diving on wrecks and beautiful reefs and also enjoy the culture. She is tops!!
