Quick ‘Jerry McGuire’ mission statement here. I believe we must put an end to the structure that enables the liveaboard domino effect ( a confirmed boat is cancelled because several divers cancel/demand date change and the operator then in turn cancels the boat for the remaining divers due to...

Bahamas Bans Flights From USA and Closes Beaches Due To Surge In Cases - Travel Off Path

Hi all, I just booked a liveaboard for the end of August thought it might be worth starting a stream as liveaboards start to open up again as countries start to open up (for now). Not really planning on this being a stream for running opinion on whether it’s a ‘good or bad idea’ or arguments...

So every American i spoke to who was on a trip to Cozumel seemed to be oblivious that they are required to Quarantine for 14 days in their homes when they returned to the US. just wanted to get opinions on this. Is it not common knowledge?

Does. Anyone have a contact at bluewater? (Not just general email) I think it’s the online dive Store site . some affiliated content on Instagram is clearly utter hogwash about ocean Biology. People are rightly challenging it publicly only to be met with responses of ‘it’s Instagram, lots of...

So I was discussing the new pier/exit/reentry at a dive site the other day and it got me to thinking... you would think by now that the growing popularity of Bonaire mixed with the general age group of the average diver etc. Etc. Might have led to there being improved exit/reentry initiatives...

If anyone is wondering... they do weigh your hand luggage in Toronto. Made me check my 2nd hand luggage bag as it was over 8kg...’sensibly’ I thew in a big plastic shopping bag last minute...I’m now wandering through the departure lounge with an oversized ‘finding dory’ bag full of lenses and...

Hi all, I’m going to Bali, researching diveshops and trying to get a feel for prices. Need some input as I’m finding quotes to be very expensive IMO. Getting averages of around $40 USD per dive on nitrox..and that’s when offering to buy a pack of 30+ dives which are all shoredives with no rental...

Hi All, Can i pick your collective brains for ideas of a place to go for a month between mid June-Mid July. The flights from Canada to Bonaire are just too high and annoying with mandatory layover in Miami to justify with a villa ( family trip) even out of season. Couple of caveats...

Razor Side Mount System 2.5 Complete - PINK EDITION you're welcome.

Quick opinions 'Yay/Nay' pls. Going on the Mermaid Superdiversity etc for 16 days and need to pick another liveaboard to go on beforehand. It's in Late October/November. Probably going to hang 5 days in Ambon at the beginning of the trip...I've read the reviews on the board for all these boats...

My nightdive buddy is flying home today. I’m around for another week if anyone fancies buddy-ing up for some. I’m happy to go alone, but if anyone is up for it and at a loose end. Shout out. Likely mainly salt pier etc. Easy dives starting at dusk but also open to v late night/ dawn dives as...

anyone have any good suggestions for truck rental on bonaire...there seem to be end of horror stories regarding reservations being cancelled/confirmed reservations not being honoured, high pressure upgrade tactics, surprise extra insurance costs when you have already agreed to full coverage...

Hi ho all. I’m looking for a bit of an ‘off the chart’ ice diving excursion if anyone has any ideas... and when I mean ‘off the chart’ I basically mean I’m looking to not pay some utter p1sstake ‘millionaire decides he wants to climb everest’ Price that seems to be the norm for your companies...

Quick question, i'm passing through coz and going to do a few quick days diving, never been before. A quick look at vids online shows several where people/diveguides are grabbing/groping nursesharks and generally touching/picking up wildlife etc. Is this standard for cozumel?...would rather set...

I'm not getting much luck with my correspondence with diveshops and i know there are a lot of bonaire experts here who can answer closer to realtime....so: ok, so i need to come up with a solution for the 'never leave anything in the truck when diving' in bonaire issue. I'm going to need to...

Just notified us that the flight schedules between Bonaire and Miami have now changed and there is no longer any way to fly back from Bonaire to Toronto in the same day without spending the night in Miami airport....so now we can either schlep a baotload of kids and equipment to an airport hotel...

on the last couple of liveaboards we have asked the captain if we can move the night dive to an earlier time, just after sundown with dinner being an hour later ( this usually means dinner at 8pm as opposed to 6pm and night dive at around 6:30pm as opposed to 7-7:30pm) Reasons for this include...
