Where would I keep an eye out for these?

Thanks, that map is a handy resource.

Well thanks everyone for your contributions - I love the depth of knowledge around here. In the end we decide to hedge our bets and go to Playa, mostly for the sake of logistics. It is easy to get to from here, and gives us access to both reefs and cenotes. If the weather craps out, it seems...

Thanks for taking the time:) Yes, I've been to Cozumel and loved the drift diving. Knowing the lay of the land there makes planning a little bit easier, but as you say it's also nice to broaden horizons. Roatan is intriguing. Did you have to jump through many hurdles to get there? Or back!

Yeah the Blue Hole is a nice overnight for us and a great training venue, but I think I would struggle to spend a week there! Where are ABC and the Bay Islands?

So far Egypt, Thailand, Florida, Cozumel for vacations with a smattering of days in other random places: Egypt- Likes- where I learned and probably still the most spectacular and colorful reef life. Falafel. Dislikes - not crazy about Islamic countries and the Middle East. Thailand - Likes -...

Oh good point - ideally $2500-3000 pp.

Hi Looking for suggestions from all you knowledgeable SB folks... Timeframe - a one week trip in the first half of August Traveling from - Albuquerque NM. Experience - PADI rescue divers, I have 125 (?) dives, wife has about half that. Interests - all of it really. Not cave or wreck...

Apologies if there is a thread for this already - I had a quick scan but am pressed for time at work. WHo has travelled to COZ (or other Mexico venues) from the US recently? How was it? What are the best resources for checking current entry and return requirements? TIA Nick

Cool, will look into it.

Awesome, we're talking Scuba Club right?

Hi all My wife and I are looking forward to getting back in the ocean after all the disappointments of the last year. Due to childcare though, we won't be able to travel together. Instead we are planning on making a couple of trips and covering for each other. The first place that sprang to...

Ah that explains it. Blue Hole is our local practice spot and I wasn't aware of much tech diving there. Isn't there a chamber in Santa Fe ?

Where is that, out of interest?

Oh cool. Had my first up close and personal with a grouper diving the Circle of Heroes out of tarpon Springs a couple of months ago. Turned a corner and there he was right in front of me. Not sure who jumped more! PCB?

LOL. If Coz flights allowed fur babies and could be had for the price of four tanks of gas...I'd be there in a shot :-)

Got 10 days off work in November. Driving down from NM with a rough idea of aiming for Pensacola. 2 days out, 2 days back leaves us 6 days for play. So, what would you do? Spend the whole time in Pensacola? If so, any specific recommends? Or just take a couple of days there before pushing...

Thanks for the welcome, and for the site. Impressed by the signal/noise so far.

Howdy! Funnily enough we are going to Florida next week to take care of some family business. Hoping to get a couple of days out of Clearwater/Tarpon Springs between obligations.

Yeah, starting to feel like a grown up. Even done a few independent shore and hole dives now :-)
