    TG-6 with PT-059

    I am using an Olympus TG-6 with a PT-059 housing. I am able to take decent pictures, but as I am sure many others have seen, the built in flash with the housing isn't quite strong enough and leaves a lot of shots poorly lit. I am looking to upgrade to some sort of strobe, but as I still...

    Tipping

    How much do you usually tip on a Liveaboard? Last year did Blackbeard's with my son's and tipped $500 for the 3 of us. That amounted to about 12% of what I paid for the trip. Heading out to Socorro with my oldest right after Christmas and trying to plan to have the cash to tip but trying to...

    Best place for kids to do Cert Dives?

    Both of my kids were certified as JR Open Water with Rainbow Reef at 10. I cannot recommend them enough and will be bringing my daughter there in a little more than a year when she is 10. They are outstanding with kids.

    Alternative to Sea Base

    I am looking to do a trip for a number of boy scouts in the summer of 2021 to the Keys for some diving. Sea Base has DQ'd my son, who is already an AOW diver because he is on 2 medications for ADHD, despite his doctors signing off. As a result, we are looking for another outfitter of company...

    Soccoro Aggressor and teenager

    We did Blackbeard's this past summer, and didn't have the best of conditions (in fact they called them the worst they had all season) and we did a 3 day live aboard out of Cozumel a few years ago. Much calmer seas there. Both much shorter trips than Socorro, but we've had some exposure to it...

    Soccoro Aggressor and teenager

    Thanks, hearing that they are good with kids was what was important to me. It really has the ability to make it break the trip for us both. Don't let his age fool you. He now has more experience than a lot of other divers. He's fast approaching 100 dives and if we can work it into his summer...

    Soccoro Aggressor and teenager

    Looking at potentially booking the Soccoro Aggressor for myself and my 15 year old son as a reward for him getting his eagle scout and had a couple questions. Anyone see any reviews of the Soccoro Aggressor yet? I know they've only had a couple cruises but would love to see some feedback as...

    SCUBA Club Cozumel

    Thank you for the response. I appreciate it and am glad to hear that it is worth returning too, definitely makes things much clearer for me. How deep, in general, do the first dives go? As far as the drift diving and ascent, he did his certification in Crystal River and Rainbow River Florida...

    SCUBA Club Cozumel

    Anyone have experience with this place? Recommendations? After looking into both Cozumel and Key Large to take my 10 yo Jr. Diver over MLK weekend, it appears that I can get a much better deal when everything is accounted for at Cozumel. Kicking around SCUBA Club, but want to make sure it is...

    Diving with a Junior - Continental US
