    Do cell phones work in Bonaire?

    Wow tep , a post that was dead for 15 years. Why not post a new thread? Or better yet, contact Verizon and get the info and post it. My Tmobile plan has 5GB of high speed international roaming and works great on Bonaire. Free text messages. $0.25 a min voice. Every plan within cell...

    American Airlines Monopoly on Cozumel

    I often get great FF award travel on AA to Cozumel. I book 328 days in advance (330 days is the max and flight prices usually drop a few days after they open dates). Last year we snagged one way for 12k from Wichita the week after Thanksgiving. Flexibility and advanced planning is key.

    Question Tell Me About Shore Diving at Cozumel Hotel (Wyndham)

    I kinda like being a little negatively buoyant holding my SMB at my safety stop. Just hanging, watching the bottom drift by.

    New ferry service

    Finally a Ferry that runs on the 1/2 hour of every hour vs on the hour. When both were running at the top of the hour (pre covid) it made no sense.

    shuttle from airport to hotels - is it worth it to pre-order?

    I believe there is now a Taxi stand accross from Diego's. There prices have unofficially gone up so best to negotiate in pesos and pay in pesos. Taxi exchange rate is 10 pesos per dollar (vs ~ 16.5 to 1). Paying in dollars will definitely be at disadvantage.

    MESS AT COZUMEL AIRPORT

    Flight arrival needs to be late enough for connecting flights from other parts of the country. Turn around flight back to US needs to be early enough for connecting flights. So, arrival flights need to depart US between 10 and 1 to arrive in Cozumel between 1 and 4 so flights can leave...

    1st paragraph "The new Royal Beach Club Cozumel, by Royal Caribbean, is set to open next year." 2nd paragraph "...will welcome vacationers in 2026" So maybe 2027? I suspect down South where there is sand. I believe they will undercut exiting beach clubs and put many out of business.

    Question How does Cozumel compare to other dive destinations?

    As mentioned, it cannot compare to any Diving in Pacific, period. It is one of the better dive destinations in Caribbean. Bonaire and Curaçao are better than Cozumel IMHO. We found Roatan, Belize, Dominica .... to be a disappointment compared to Cozumel. Cozumel is easy to get to, has great...

    Divemasters in Cozumel (and specifically with Dressel Divers)

    If I remember correctly, Dressel Divers (DD), as mentioned, will have upto 24 divers per boat. The marine park requires a Dive Master (DM) for every 8 divers. They will have 3 DM's in the water. DD has a fixed schedule of locations and limits dives to 50 min. You are NOT permitted to separate...

    DIN Tank Availability in Coz

    Correct, the diver supplies the oring with DIN since it is attached to the regulator. Advantage #1 The max working pressure of DIN is 300bars / 4,350psi, for yoke it is 240bars / 3,400psi. Advantage # 2 It is also bit more compact.

    DIN Tank Availability in Coz

    You loose any advantage to having a DIN regulator by that setup. 1. You still use the Dive ops Oring on the Tank. 2. You add an additional point of failure (the adapter to tank to DIN).
