I spent last week in Cozumel diving with Scuba Du and relaxing at the Presidente InterContinental. These are my favorites in Cozumel. Easy Diving and comfortable lodging. The dive package includes breakfast daily in one of the Presidente Restaurants. This combination never disappoints me.

Ten days of incredible Thailand diving on board the Phinisi. Thirty extraordinary dives on mostly healthy diverse reef systems. Five extra pounds on the waistline after consuming five meals per day.
The Phinsi holds up to 18 divers in seven comfortable cabins. There are five double and two quad...
I spent six days on the Valentina diving the Sea of Cortez in mid-November. We departed and disembarked from La Paz. Although there is an airport in La Paz, flights are more readily available into Cabo SJD. La Paz is a two hour drive from the Cabo airport.
The Valentina is 130 feet long and was...
Cozumel has amazing coral formations that are enriched and nourished by the Yucatan current that flows between Cozumel and the Yucatan Peninsula. The stunning colors of the coral formations burst in front of your eyes demanding your attention! A few of my favorite still photos from last week...
Angelita was the first of two cenotes I dove last Friday in Tulum. The water in Angelita has a greenish hue and features a hydrogen sulfide cloud separating the fresh and salt water at about 100 feet. Tree limbs that haven't seen the light of day in many years poke out from the cloud. Mystic and...
Fortunate to dive the Car Wash cenote in Tulum Mexico with some friends last week. Magical experience! The contrast between the lime stone walls of the caverns, and looking up at the blue sky through the jungle canopy from underwater is amazing!
"Never enough”…
The Cozumel currents were favorable last week, and I was able to dive the "Devils Throat" off of Punta Sur again! My third experience flirting with the devil! The Devil's Throat is a 60 foot long tunnel that is entered at a depth of about 80 feet. The tunnel angles downward at about 45 degrees...
I recently returned from a nine day dive expedition to the Socorro Islands aboard the Nautilus Explorer. The islands are 250 miles due west into the Pacific from Cabo San Lucas Mexico. Four of the nine days are utilized for transit from Cabo San Lucas to the Revillagigedo Islands and back. The...
Bigblue is a model for other manufacturers on how to stand behind a product! The narrow beam on my 2+ year old VTL2600P stopped working in September. Although the warranty period is one year, Bigblue provided me a replacement light head at 40% off retail. On my second dive trip with the...
We returned to Buddy Dive Bonaire for the first time in a couple of years with friends. Important to comprehend the entry requirements for arrival into Bonaire to avoid disappointment. The Buddy check in, trunk rental and Bonaire STINAPA Park fees may all be processed on line prior to your...

Awesome week at the InterContinental Presidente diving with Scuba Du. Nothing has changed on the inbound side at Cozumel Airport except the requirement to wear a mask. A beautiful weather week. Temperatures ranged from the upper 70's at night to daytime highs in the upper 80's. Only one day...
Unique and memorable experience diving with Bull, Dusky and Silky sharks. I have done several shark dives but have never had the opportunity to dive with bull sharks. Our Shark Handler Lauren (Marine Biologist and shark conservationist) showed a great amount of respect and affection for the...
