    Diving Kanagawa on the Cheap - Is it possible?

    Just looking for a few reasonably priced dive operators in Kanagawa. Any recommendations? I've dove with Discovery Divers Tokyo before and they're a great bunch to dive with, but they get booked out really quick. Need some backup alternatives, just in case I decide one morning to drive along the...

    Split fin haters... please explain:

    Just got back from diving Cozumel with my wife. Our Biofins worked like magic in the current! Strong enough to keep me hovering through it to take photos with minimal effort. Love our biofins!

    Diving Cancun, Playa Del Carmen, Isla Tortugas, Cozumel, Cenotes: 'Brief' Report

    Best dives I've ever had in my 5 years of diving! Helped a lot that we had the best guides in the water with us. Might head back in December, (work and savings account permitted..:banghead:). Alvaro said that's around the time the bull sharks come out.

    Zeagle's Express Tech: The first and last BC most will ever need (or want)

    Just got back from diving Mexico with my wife with our new Express Techs. Amazing! So light, so comfortable, so easy to use and wear! Absolutely the best BC I've ever used. We've got the zip-touch systems on them too! I used 6lbs. in Cancun! (Pretty good I think considering I'm 175cm and medium...

    Cancun, Riv Maya, Coz or PDC - I need a good resort with a great dive instructor - ?

    I highly recommend Alvaro Gonzalez of Alwaysdiving.com. I believe he's also on these forums. He's not affiliated with any resort, but he is the best I can recommend in Mexico. You will not be disappointed. Highly personalized, safe, highly experienced and knowledgeable, and extremely reasonably...

    I screwed up. Need a decent operator in cancun

    Just got back from my honeymoon with my wife. We did a bit of research before going, and after receiving cut and paste responses from several other dive operators (mentioned on this site in various sections of the forums, but not including Scorpio Divers, which I've read good things about but...

    Zeagle's Express Tech: The first and last BC most will ever need (or want)

    Nice! I'm 5'7 (175cm) and my wife is around 5'5. Both on the light to medium side (I'm more medium). The zip touch should suit her perfectly then. Hopefully it'll suit me too. Thanks again!

    Zeagle's Express Tech: The first and last BC most will ever need (or want)

    Just firstly want to thank everyone in this thread. It's been a very informative and entertaining read. Secondly, thanks to everyone here, I've decided to get my wife and I an ET each! Had to order everything online though, since we live in Japan (which for some reason retails the ET for wards...

    Cancun in April, dive prices?

    I have the same question. Going to Cancun with my wife for our honeymoon and looking for the best rates. None of the dive operator sites seem to have any prices listed.
