    Backpackers wanting cheap Scuba Diving spots!

    Diving in Bocas del Toro is not so good. I would recommend you or to stay in Puerto Viejo in Costa Rica or to head to Coiba or the pacific coast of Panama.

    Turks & Caicos seasons?

    I would say december till May. 30°C water is too hot and fishes go probably deeper to get fresher waters.

    Costa Rica - best diving

    Visibility is the major issue on the pacific cost. We usually have 15m/30 feet. But it depends a lot of the currents coming from the north. On the other hand, thanks to these currents, waters are very rich of nutriments and the underwater wildlife is in average pretty good. It's rare to not stop...

    Four Days and Counting! What's New In Roatan?

    Too many Cruising boats in Roatan since 2 years. I found the inside reef very damaged and with too many divers and snorkelers. Go dive outside on the wall

    Ambergris in June

    If you do the Blue Hole, take a 1 day trip...I found the 2 dives on the Turneffe much better than the Blue Hole in itself with great walls, uge loggerhead turtles, sharks etc. Comparing to the HolChan (that is quite ok), it cannot be compared.

    Costa Rica - best diving

    I strongly recommend you the Pacific Cost. The best are, for me, located in Corcovado which is on the south Pacific; Isla del Cano is a great place for scuba diving off all levels. The only inconvenient is that it's quite remoted and prices of hotels are higher than on the north Pacific like...

    Utilia/Roatan vs. Belize vs. Cozumel?

    I've been to Cozumel, Belize and Roatan last year and I would rank this destinations like this: 1. Cozumel: my best choice. Great coral and many different kind of dives..shallow or deep. Good choice of dive operators. 2. Belize: I was not so impressed by the local dives. The blue hole...ok it's...

    Costa Rica - Catalina or Cano (March / April)

    Cano Island is the best spot...but quite remoted and much more expensive than going to the Catalinas or Bat Island. Bat island is great but only dive centers in Playa del Coco go there: it's about 1h30 / 2h from Playa del Coco. In addition, there are not going to Bat island every day: when the...

    Diving in Playa Del Carmen and Riviera Maya

    I went diving there a year ago and I had smooth drifting dives...just let you drift in the current. Very relaxing.

    Define How Challenging is Cocos Island

    I went to Coco's island with just 50 dives and was not feeling very confortable (and a little scared) dureing the first dives due to the very strong current. But after that...you can go diving anywhere as you boost your diving experience.

    a trip to Honduras

    You could do both Roatan and Utila. Utila is more layback with tons of backpackers....and it's one of the cheapest place on earth to go diving. You almost have your room free if you book the dives where you stay at.
