So my fiance and I, and her 2 kids (10 and 13) have decided that the Bahamas are our leading candidate for our next trip. Most of my dive travel has been to Bonaire, and I love that style of vacation. But it starts getting cost prohibitive for 4 and the airfare there. Economy there tends to...

Is AB Dive the only company that does a 6 day unlimited package that can be spread over more than 6 days? Later this year, I'm going for 10 days. I've been enough times to not need to dive daily, and I kind of want to explore other parts of the island (like the park, never been) and I'm taking...

Anyone stayed there?

Heading to PDC in May of next year, I'm taking a brand new OW diver with me, and would love for her to experience something like that. I know it's slightly before season, but worth asking.

Not counting travel costs, 8-10k budget, the female and I are looking at a 2+ weeks in somewhere warm and beautiful in late 2022. We may even divide it up, Week in Egypt, week in Thailand. Maybe a week in Palau and 10 days in the Seychelles. Tell us about what you would do and why?

Anyone have any experience with them? Suggestions?

One would think this would be easy info to find, but so far, it's not. I know AA, Delta, and United have flights on Saturdays. I know UA has one out on Sundays, and Delta does Sundays part of the year, and I know UA does a flight out on Sunday from the late saturday arrival. What else is...

Just booked my 4th trip, (15, 16, 18, and now '20) One of my travel partners is about to do his 5th. The dive shop owner I used to work for has been almost 40 times.

I have about 15-17 people wanting to do a group trip, and hoping to stay together. Preferably on the water. I've stayed at Bonaire sunset villa a few times, but it's limited to ten people. I've seen a few houses that can do 12, and one or two that can do 14. Booking a block of rooms at a...

September time frame, for 1 week. The closer to Largo, the better. 3 or 4 bedrooms, prefer a house, kitchen mandatory. Prefer on the open water, not a lagoon. I'm the only diver in the group, 2 will snorkel, 3 might. I prefer a dive op that'll won't force me to dive with an instabuddy. I'm a...

3rd trip in 4 years. Best conditions so far. My wife and I arrived on American. It's just a bit later than Delta and United depart, so everything was nice and cleared out. It's not a large aircraft, we came in on a 319. Passport control was quick and friendly, bags were feeding in...

A couple of people (non divers)in my group next week want a vehicle at their disposal for a little freedom. It may get driven 3 or 4 times while we're there, and they don't want anything new or nice, so they don't want to spend a ton of money. A cheap beater is highly preferred. 4 door...

Just booked a week at Couples San Souci Everything is included, even diving. I'm about to go to Bonaire for the 3rd time. Might do the Caymans before Jamaica. So with that kind of diving history, should I even bother taking my gear to Jamaica? Or should i sit back, eat jerk chicken and...

Guess that means we're flying back to Bonaire. Guess I'll dive while I'm getting salt. The pains we go through for our wives. . .

Obviously pretty individual, but what temps did the suit alone work for you? Any pros, cons you'd want to pass on? I've read one person gripe about the double layering making it hard to adjust if you get some squeeze. I have a chance at a pretty good deal on one, but wanted some...

Wife and i have been to Bonaire, where we rented a nice villa on the water. We had 5 friends with us, so the romance was limited. I'm a tech diver, she's getting OW this year. She wants somewhere other than a place she's been. And she wants to be on the water. Caribbean, Central America...

AB Car Rental is now also AB Dive. We saw a tailgate today with the website AB-Dive | | Unlimited Air Packages lowest price on Bonaire Looks like in Febuary they're going to start 6 day unlimited air/nitrox packages for $159, and offer packages for truck and gas rental. The site doesn't say...

The water is 84, 5 degrees warmer than last year. The bleaching is fairly bad, and at Cliff, lots of stuff is still covered in sand. Just got back from Vista Blue, the viz was about 40 feet. But things weren't covered in sand, but a fair amount of dead coral.

My family is planning a trip to Disney in about a year. I'm not doing Disney again. I'd rather gouge my eyes out with a feather. Cavern interests me a lot. When (if?) I arrive, I'll have 1kish dives, and SSI XR will be my highest cert. But I'll mostly have to dive during the times when my...
