Very intersting Doc and thanks for the response. This May trip last month was a "1st timer" trip so we went where most divers seem to go in West End on recomendations from friends who did Roatan from a West End base. You've given me something to think about. However, I have a feeling that...

Book our flights in Aprli 2024 for a May trip when they will cost me $1,200 per person instead of $670 that I can book now for the same flights (forgetting about using air miles)? Nah. I'll look around for other accomodations and dive ops with better refund policies around West End, Honduras...

Update... Just looked into booking Splash Inn for May 2024 as now is when we can book the best flights for the lowest airmiles and their refund policy has changed! Prior Policy: New Policy: That is a deal killer for us looking to book about a year in advance when we have to get our flights...

I will say I learned a lesson about this light. I bought 2 initially... One for my wife's camera and 1 for me to serve as a primary dive light. Well, this is NOT suitable as a primary dive light. I subsequently bought a different Wurkkos to serve as my primary dive light and it is Awesome...

Yes. I had the same worry as we are running integrated DC's attached to our regs. You have nothing to worry about. The dive shop is staffed all day and then they lock the whole shop up at night. Your gear is totally secure.

You are correct. Backspatter will still be an issue for stills that my wife mainly shoots as opposed to long arms holding flashes directed from the sides. The onboard flash on the TG is way weak so I added one of these floods to her rig for the last trip and pics came out much better but the...

Twin wurkkos DL07’s providing up to 3000 linens of flood each for 2 hour run times. Small Neewer shoe mount and 1 to 3 way shoe adapter, 2 more shoe mounts for that for the lights and the foam float made from a high density closed foam yoga block. Total price around $150 for it all. Can’t...

After diving Coz for 20+ years and meeting many divers who were migrating up from Roatan through Coz on their extended regional dive trips Roatan had been on my radar for a long time. One thing that kinda put me off aside from the airfare and prior difficulty getting there the same day from my...

I wouldn't dive with either of them. Just me. If ya want to, go ahead, have at it.

DO NOT dive with the house op at Secrets. It is a crap op in my opinion and my last trip in Dec hanging out at the little pool at the in-town Casa Mexicana we ran into a guy and his wife (on their honeymoon) who had to leave Secrets and relocate to in-town accommodations because he was an...

Again, I have to give credit where credit is due. I've been diving this island for 20? years and have only seen 1 frog fish and that was many years ago. Maybe others spot them all the time but I know DM's who have been diving this island for years and have never seen one. Anyway, my one and...

From what I understand he was certified decades ago but had not been diving for a long, long time. I questioned him about his dive computer and how this happened but he kind of avoided that question. I am guessing that he went diving with Dive House and if they gave him a free DC to dive with...

Hotel Coz all the way over FA. Use Hotel Coz's on-site dive op if you want. Want a higher level of diving? Book your stay at Hotel Coz and then book your diving separate with 3P's that is always picking up Hotel Coz divers on the street out front around 7:50 AM to the dive boats and dropping...

I have to give credit where credit is due. If you're on this island and something fails and need anything from a rare battery to some sort of strap or connection where do ya go? I've always gone to Blue Magic scuba that seems to have about everything that can repair/replace whatever failed...

It wasn't from the airports or planes... I'm quite certain of that. Wife and I wore N95's in the airports and on the planes as we don't want to catch anything when traveling to a dive destination. We resided in probably the 3% who were wearing masks in the airports and on the planes. This was...

THC isn't my personal poison but if you must, you'd probably be better off trying to sneak edibles like gummies in over a vape pen and keep them on you up high in a shirt pocket or something, not in checked luggage or a low carry-on that gets dragged past the sniffing dogs on entry. Not sure...

Nah... No one ever gets sick on Coz... it's an island... it's virtually insulated from sickness. :wink: Yeah, right. Until you catch it and then you hear, "Oh yeah, there's a bug going around and 1/2 the island has been sick with it". Basically it's a strain of acute viral bronchitis that...

Update... So I ended up purchasing 2 of these lights in preparation for the December dive trip to Cozumel. One was to serve as a camera light and the other was to see how one would do as a regular dive light for me. I've probably owned 5-6 dive lights over the years prior to purchasing/trying...

So I guess the pier is going in at some point. Just what Coz needs... More cruise ships, more cruise ship passengers, more traffic jams, more pollution and trash blowing around.
