    Suggestions for Bora Bora and Moorea

    Interesting, thanks. Safety is always a concern, especially when my wife is involved. I was actually leaning towards them because they offer a 10 dive package that can be used across islands (great for hoppers), but now I'm rethinking that. Any other tips welcome ;)

    Suggestions for Bora Bora and Moorea

    Thanks, I am staying at Sofitel Motu over the water as well. I've now read good things about both Nemo World and TopDive (and I have a feeling that they are the only two outfits on the island). TopDive is a bit more expensive but looks like a larger operation. I guess I'll just play it by...

    Suggestions for Bora Bora and Moorea

    Nice. I am also going to both Moorea and Bora Bora in less than three weeks (same time than the person who placed the original post). He/she was also asking about dive operators in Bora Bora also, but I don't think anyone had any suggestions ... anyone? Michael

    Puffer fish hi def picture anyone?

    Thanks for the beautiful pics everyone, now I just don't know which to choose from! I agree with the other posts that intentionally making these guys puff is unethical because it is stressful, if not harmful, to these poor little guys. I was in Cabo just last week-end and saw tons, but left...

    Diving after pneumonia - how long to wait?

    Thanks for the feedback, I want to play it safe indeed. After listening to my lungs again which sounded so much better, the Dr decided not to re-X-Ray me to avoid unnecessary x-ray exposure. I'll have a Dr friend of mine listen to my breathing before diving again to be sure and I'll...

    Diving after pneumonia - how long to wait?

    Hi all- I had so-called "walking pneumonia" a couple of weeks ago and I am DYING (no pun intended) to go diving again, but I want to play it safe. I went to the Dr's for a fever that would not go away on Jan 9 which is when he diagnosed me with a light case of pneumonia of the lower right...

    Tips on older camera

    Thanks for the info! I plugged the hole with the plastic disc, epoxied the whole thing, and took it to 115ft... nice and dry! The bad news is that it turns out that the flash doesn't work at all (flash ready light goes on, but the capacitor doesn't discharge).. not sure if it is the bulb, or...

    Catalina on Memorial Day weekend

    pawclaws and socalmike- I too will be buddyless for a while as my regular buddy decided to get DCS and can't dive for the next 6 months. I live in Long Beach. I agree that Catalina will be a zoo on Memorial but I'm willing to give it a shot any other week-end, or to join you anytime on a boat...

    Tips on older camera

    I dive often in California but have never purchased an underwater camera because I am worried about losing/breaking all of that expensive equipment. So my next vacation will be a liveaboard in Belize and one of my colleagues who used to dive a lot let me borrow his old Sea&Sea Motormarine 35...
