Well, that sounds pretty good, thanks guys! Are there many operators on Caulker that go to Blue Hole, or do most people go to Ambergris for that?

Going to spend 5 days on Caulker in January. Looking to dive the Blue Hole and the best of the other local sites. Looking for an abundance and variety of sea life. What can you all recommend?

Most of the time will be on the Pacific coast. but we'll be making a run over to the Caribbean side for the Corn Islands at the very least. ---------- Post added September 13th, 2015 at 08:20 PM ---------- It's looking to be most likely the Catalina Islands, and Corn Islands for us. Anyone...

Some friends and I are going to Costa Rica and Nicuragua, (and a small possiblity of Panama as well) this coming January. What are the best sites and the best operators at those sites? This would be, regrettably, excluding Cocos Island. Liveaboards aren't in the budget this time. What we are...

All this info is really great. Thanks guys. I am just now realizing that water temp might be an issue. I haven't done my dry suit course yet...

I have an evening and the following morning free in San Diego the middle of next week. Any suggestions on diving options? Sites with an abundance of interesting sea life? Operators?

YUcatan I mean. How embarrassing... Going to be on the Yucatan in June, and planning to do some diving. Is Cozumel the tops, or are there other dives around the area I should not miss? I was planning to do all my diving in Cozumel, but if if anyone has a better plan to suggest, please do...

I'm taking a trip to the Yucatan and Cuba in June, and I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to try and do any diving in Cuba. It seems there is very little info out there, and a lot of it is conflicting. I just finished watching a PBS documentary that said that from the lack of sea traffic and...

Tres Pelicanos has 80's and 100' for a fee. They have a 70 min cap. Do you think a 180lb man that's reasonably good with air such as myself could easily go 70 on those tanks?

Thanks for all the input everyone. To clarify, I am an AOW diver with 43 dives logged. I will either be travelling with a friend (also AOW diver), or by myself. I would prefer to stay in or close to town. All inclusive is not really my thing I don't think; I'll likely stay in a hostel...

What is the best dive centre and what are the best sites there?

I am planning a trip to Cuba and would like to spend a portion of it diving. Where in the country is the best diving to be had? I am AOW diver, likely going solo, and am interested primarily in the marine wlidlife.

Trying to spread the word about these guys. If anyone's got an extra couple of bucks around, please give some thought to donating to this Kickstarter campaign. No donation is too small! This is a way you can do something that will have a real and positive effect on the marine environment...

Both times I have gone were in September and both times there were Whale Shark sightings in the Area. You usually only see them at the deeper sites such as Chumpon Pinnacle, and Sail Rock.

A month might be a bit long for Koh Tao. I went for 10 days last year (my second time) and had done most of the local sites a couple of times by the end of that stretch. You may find that many of the dive centers are more focused on the students than trying to make trips out to what might be...

My girlfriend and I are going to Italy this summer and we are trying to pick a spot to dive. Wrecks are OK and all, but our primary interest is seeing the most variety of species we can. Is there anyone who's been to all 3 and might be able to suggest which they thought was best?

Interesting. Seems like you've been around the Agean quite a bit. I'm going on a trip there this year. What was the best diving you experienced in that area?

All the "top ten" pages for Mediterranean diving seem to list Chios, but I can't seem to find any information about diving there. Cant seem to find a single decent looking dive center on the PADI site, SSI site, or a general web search. Is the diving there really any good, or has some tourist...

Going to Italy, Greece, and Turkey on my holiday. would like to go to 2, maybe 3 dive destinations as part of the trip. Leaning towards Malta/ Gozo for one of the choices. Any recommendations for others? I'm more into fish than wrecks, but if there's any really cool submerged ruins I might like...
