Cabo Diving - San Lucas vs San Jose

[dbone]

We'll be diving this weekend as part of a work trip to the Cabo area. I searched the SB archives and there's not much info on diving the Cabo area not on a live-aboard, especially recently. We're staying in San Jose and have 2 days of diving (Fri and Sat).

It looks like the close in choices are "The Corridor" area or the marine park down by San Lucas. Anybody dive both recently and care to comment or compare the 2 options? Gordo Banks looks like fun, but I think we'll save that for when we have a longer trip.

As far as dive shops, it looks like East Cape Explorers is the best option in San Jose, and I guess we'd go with Dive Cabo if we decide to dive out of San Lucas. I'm open to comments/suggestions on this choice as well.

Thanks!

Dave

Here are a couple of SB reviews from a few years ago - one is mine. There may be a few tidbits of info that help. If you haven't been to Cabo San Lucas before and can swing it, the topside views on the way to the dive sites are pretty nice. Have fun.
