Dive trip november/december - value for money

[rasrolig]

Hi,

Looking for at dive trip in november/december.

Some of the guys are pretty new, and one have been dive master many years ago.

Where should we go in november or december. Could be some diving and relaxing or other experiences.
We are late 30's.

Open to pretty much all - luxury not needed, would like a true experience more than tourist outside the diving.

Thanks

Gets nice in the Philippines and the Western (Krabi/Phuket) side of Thailand. The main EU-friendly thing to beat Thailand in value for money is Egypt, through being a lot closer. But you don't want any of it outside of diving (and it doesn't want you either). Relaxing and other experiences, Thailand again. The other side of the pond likes Cozumel for easy travel, no such perk for Denmark.

Have you looked at Curacao staying and diving on the West end of the island?

You can go to Bonaire, my husband and I stayed there for a month and a half last December - January and it was great. You rent a track and dive from shore whenever you want and the rest of the time you can travel around the island, kite surf and just relax. We dived with Buddy Dive Resort.

Would rather go east than west - as it is easier from Denmark with planes/transport

We had three weeks of wonderful weather and wonderful diving last year in the Philippines. Really recommend it , we went to southern Leyte , Dumaguete and Malapascua. The international airport in cebu is far more convenient for getting to and around these islands than is Manila.

Went to that region a couple of years ago, really liked it as well.
