Hotel Cozumel started a Catch of the Day Beach Party in Feb 2023 that was Wed afternoons. It seemed popular enough it was still being held again this Feb when we returned. They stuck with the band we originally saw & heard & from what I was told this year they still have the contract. The band...

The policy (as far as I know) went into effect island wide after Cameron (Northernone) disappeared on a dive which began from shore with his mother. She returned to shore according to what I read so he could do a short wall dive and then join her about 20 minutes later on the shore. There are...

You need a partner to rent tanks. NO solo diving. If you haven't got one it usually doesn't take too long to find someone that will let you join them & a friend or 2 to do it with . Usually you swim against the current which flows south to north most of the time. This 2 links get you an older...

I was at Hotel Cozumel during the furniture issue and I think it's been taken care of. New furniture was ordered but delayed & staff had cleared out the old stuff. There was a lot of confusion because the front desk staff is new & so is the computer system. Workers didn't tell the front desk the...

This years trip started Jan 28 and we arrived on a beautiful but windy "ports closed" day. There were several of those days this trip including our last day which was yesterday (Feb 18) and it's still closed again today. Once the sea & wind got back to normal I made a shore dive with friends I...

Snorkeling at the Grand was actually not that bad but my visit was almost 14 years ago. There was considerable rubble in the roped off area to draw a reasonable mix of marine life. There was a large school of fish which seemed to call the area home along with a bit of an aggressive Barracuda...

Stiff fines when orders are disobeyed.

Well I sure don't blame him for trying to prevent tragedies. His shoulders can't be big enough to carry a load like that nor should we insist on risking our life because it's our (dive, fishing, snorkeling etc etc) vacation which cost $xxx and we only get 1 a year.

I saw a video of the sailboat being dragged out to deeper water. No idea if it's damaged or seaworthy.

It hasn't capsized but there are videos on the FB page Cozumel 4 You showing a sailboat with it's sails up seriously grounded in very shallow water at La Monina.

If you stay down south or up north AI's become a necessity because there are limited choices in restaurants nearby. Near or in town opens up lots of places withing walking distance or by a short cab ride. Will a hotel do or do you want a resort experience? Real beach or just ocean access...

I'm here now starting a 3 week vacation at Hotel Cozumel and while having lunch we had a few very heavy downpours of rain. That caught my attention big time because I'm certain there were times I couldn't see anything 100 meter / yards out from my elevated position. I seriously think a boat crew...

There is a good chance Apple would know it's owner. They most likely had to register it to have it work correctly to their cloud system.

I stay at Hotel Cozumel & have put together an album showing the things I've seen doing my gear check out shore dives. It consists of photos from several trips which are usually made in the period of late Jan through mid Feb (which is Eagle Ray season) & what you see is representative of what...

Check with Blue Project re the young one.

According to the TV news & Facebook Westjet cancelled all flights from Toronto from (I think) 10:00 AM. onward yesterday. I haven't seen anything yet today as to what's up but just uploaded this 1 minute video from my front window. We have the Turkey & Ham here that was to be delivered for the...

I'm in rural south Ottawa & it has changed from rain to blowing snow as the temp drops big time. The snow is going sideways & from the noon news the GTA is NOT a nice place to be & the airport is an even worse place to be.

Things aren't looking any better for people in many area of Canada or the US when it comes to travel or outdoor activities right now thru Sunday. Depending on location you may already be having parts of the storm, had the storm or are (as in my case) are waiting for the storm to arrive. Aircraft...

First how's Eric? He's a friend & so is his son Eric (junior). I don't see many reports of divers using Challenge. As for the sharks I have seen them on several different trips (The Caribbean Reef Sharks referred to as Black Tips.) I visit in Feb which may give a different result than at this...

"Be advised most instructors that I know of do not want a parent or even friends in the water near them during instruction as it could be distracting to the student." That's a very good point from Gary.
