PlanoDvr1:
I am new to this board and new to diving. Been NAUI certified thru Scubatoys in Carollton, TX a suburb outside of Dallas. I am looking for information on the Emerald Dolphin Diving Services in Cozumel. The instructors that went to Cozumel use them specifically. I just want to hear from others, if you have used them let me know what your thoughts. Also, I understand there is mostly drift diving in Cozumel. How fast and slow is the current? Will I just be zooming by the reefs not getting a chance to see stuff or is what I'm hearing and reading exagerated?
We will be going in January 2005. Is that a good/bad/ok time to go?
Thanks!!
WELCOME to ScubaBoard!!
Enjoy the ride, it's a wild one sometimes.
I'd say the currents here can be rougher than the drift diving in Coz, but only seldom.
Hope to see you in the threads.
Now for my stock message, which is still under construction:
This is a great place to meet people, talk about diving, and get information on just about any aspect of diving -or other subjects sometimes- that you can think of. Roaming through the forums is great help for me.
Now get wet with us and dive into the forums to ask questions, answer those that you can and even chat with folks about diving dreams and nightmares. ScubaBoard is a great place to spend your required Surface Intervals.
When you post a question, be as sure as you can that it's in the right forum or you'll probably find it moved.
The folks here are passionate about their diving, some about their specialty, so the reading can get very interesting, sometimes very hot.
Don't forget, if you haven't already done it, to fill out you profile as completely as reasonable, it'll save you being asked and having to repeat the information often.
Enjoy!
Tom
