    Trip Report Puerto Rico Trip Report August 2023

    Just finishing a 2 week trip (August 5 – 19, 2023) to Puerto Rico with my family. We chose this destination because there’s a direct flight from DC where we live and we wanted a mix of overland and underwater opportunities for fun. TLDR: Puerto Rico is definitely an under appreciated dive...

    Quick trip report. We flew into San Juan and picked up a car. The general idea was to dive Desecheo out of Rincon and then head down to La Parguera for the wall. We were warned ahead of time that weather can be dicey, but we were relatively lucky. A couple of days were blown out the week...

    San Juan PR

    Going for a 4 day weekend and staying in San Juan. Would like to know a great operator to go out with. I enjoy deep dives as well as shallow but would like to find a shop with a boat not too big. Any advice would be great. I do not speak Spanish.
