Cabo Trip!

[dolbersen]

I'll be heading down to Cabo San Lucas, BCS, Mexico the last week of September. I've got a few questions:

• Any dive operators to look up or avoid?
• Any especially awesome dive sites (aside from Cabo Pulmo)?
• Any good places for snorkeling?
• Any moderately easy shore dives?

Of course if you have any other advice I'm interested in that too!

P.S.Snorkeling at Peligan Rock is second to none Snorkelers can go on the Dive boats and snorkel while The Divers Are Diving also Lovers Beach Is Great To Do surface intervel and snorkel. The olny shore Dive Is chileno Beach. But the shop closed there so rent gear in Cabo. This a reef about 1/4 mile off the beach but very much to see. Better off Boat Diving.

Plenty of good diving in Cabo, Gordo Banks is a nice subterranean mount at 100 ft.
Lots of schooling Jack and Tuna, chances to see Mantas and Hammerheads.
Here is my trip report from last year.

How well did that 3mm shortie work out? I'm diving 7mm right now -- any idea how much weight I could drop?

 

[dlndavid]

I used a 3 mil full in Cabo, not sure how much weight you can drop as I'm still getting my optimum weighting down, I keep dropping weight. Down to 26 lbs in a full 7 mil cold water set up, should be close to 20 lbs with a 3 mil full.

Stay away from Baja. How credible can someone be if they are dishonest from the get go!

My husband and I are also going to Cabo. We dove with Jorge last year at this time when he worked for Blue Adventures, but since then he has purchased his own boat, a 44' Yacht, The Alacran, and I was wondering if anyone has been diving with him on his boat. Last March we dove with Underwater Diversions - we had a great time with Heldado, Gary and Jordan but unfortunately two of the three are no longer there, so we were looking up Jorge and found him. Anyway, can anyone tell me any experiences with his dive operation. Thanks in advance.
