Hey Everyone,
Have just spent a few mind-boggling evenings on the net researching diving in South America. We are doing a six week trip from rio de janeiro to lima, peru and want to fit in a week of diving. The plan was to do the diving in belize, the bay of islands or even north brazil in the national park (Fernando de Noronho) however this is pushing the price of flights up by 1,400 at least. Dublin-rio, lima-dublin working out around 1200, add in belize or recife(north brazil) and add on 1,400 and that's just the flights. So then decided to make the best of diving around rio but it really doesn't sound that great. We're heading in July/August. Any advice in general on diving in south america? Or is there anywhere up around central america (where diving appears to be far better) that we can dive without breaking the bank!??
