    DAN Insurance Changes?

    Anyone else get the email that DAN is no longer offering coverage in your state? I did. (Washington) :( They say they're working on it and I sure hope they do. I've had it for decades and this is a real bummer. We all know that now my family DOESN'T have coverage will be the time one of us...

    Akumal Diving?

    I've been diving Cozumel for years, but we've decided to retire in Akumal so I'm wondering about the diving in that area. I did a bit of diving a number of years back out of Puerto Adventuras and it was 'OK'. Wasn't super impressed with the experience. It was pretty self-serve and rushed and...

    Quick report - diving with Living Underwater

    Well , another vacation in Coz is in the books. Not our best trip, but there were a few highlights. Unfortunately, we had bad weather all but one day and the port was closed for 3 days, but I still managed to dive 3 days. That was definitely the highlight of the trip! We headed to the east...

    How are your laptops weathering checked luggage?

    Last time we put a laptop in our checked luggage it didn't make it... No great surprise if you've seen how they throw around luggage. Yes, it was in a padded case in hard-sided luggage. I'm not sure what else to do. How are you all packing your laptops and Kindles for the journey?

    Volaris deal! - airfare from the Seattle

    I was checking airfares last night from Seattle and Volaris now flies to Cozumel (through GDL) for about $400. I was looking in Dec-Feb, so into CZM instead of CUN that's a screaming deal!! They fly out of a few airports in CA, so it may be even cheaper from there :)

    Websites that will allow Cancun arrival?

    Seems none of the big players (Orbitz, Expedia, etc...) allow me to choose a package with a hotel in Coz and fly into Cancun. I know I've done it many times before, always cheaper. Anyone know of one that still allows it? It's always been cheaper to do a package than separately if I want to...

    Quick bag drag question

    For a friend who is headed to the states. It's been awhile since I did it, so I don't quite remember. Does the ADO bus from Playa to the Cancun Airport drop you off at the international gates? Someone told her it will not and she will need to take a van? I don't remember that... I thought...

    Temps?

    I've never been down in October... How are the water temperatures and the ride back? In the summer I'm good with no beanie in the water and just a towel around me on the boat. Winter/spring I need that beanie and I bring my boat coat.

    Summer availability

    [-]Hi [/-] Aloha All- I'm a Hawaii newbie (first visit last March), but with a kid at UH I'll be heading over a few times a year. I'm a Caribbean junkie, so I understand the weather and tourist seasons there, but no idea about Hawaii. What's summer like? I've read temps are stable year-round...

    Trip Report March 23-27 - Honolulu, Kaimana Divers

    Spent a week in Honolulu in March checking out my daughter's new college and squeezed in a couple days of diving with Kaimana. Communication with this shop was outstanding! Booking, reminders the night before, updates on pick up times... Gabe and Kevin really have their act together. This is an...

    Honolulu

    Heading to Oahu next week (daughter got accepted to UofH, Go Warriors!). I'm going to fit in a few days of diving while I'm there, in the process of setting up with Kaimana Divers. All my diving in the last 5 years has been done in Cozumel and I'm wondering how the boat experience compares...

    Whaa?! 59 degrees?

    Just came off working a big storm.... 40+ hours of OT, which I made bearable by mentally purchasing a ticket to Coz with the extra cash, and making mental lists of restaurants I will visit. :D Then I checked in with a friend and she said it was 59 degrees?! I know it's winter, but that just...

    Whale Shark Season?

    There's a possibility I may be able to get down late August/early September. I realize each year is slightly different, but I'm looking for some expert(s) opinions on the odds..... If there's a pretty good chance they'll still be around at the end of August I might just go ahead an book the...

    Hate my new Rx mask....suggestions?

    After research and calling some manufacturers I finally ordered a new Rx mask. And I hate it! I ended up getting a mask with bifocals as my distance is 'ok'. I needed to make the move to Rx as I was having a bit of difficulty making out my gauges and I HATED my inability to see baby...

    Been home a bit over 24 hours and need to start planning my next trip! LOL Just realized we can get to Mexico City for free and the packages from there are very reasonable! We're thinking of heading to Mexico City and then changing planes to get to Coz. Anybody ever done this? As we would...
