I am interested in organizing a trip for myself and a friend of mine that entails AOW + Rescue + Diving in beautiful Cozumel. We are both standard OW and have more or less the same experience diving. So it is a great opportunity to advance as a team of two in our training and take a nice vacation in the meantime.
My question in particular with Cozumel is if there is any dive op (mention the specific instructor) or private instructors someone could recommend in Cozumel. As usual, the instructor becomes the key element in training, and I hear a lot of great reviews for many dive ops in Cozumel, but not so much information regarding experiences with instructors and training.
Of course it makes sense to go with a recognized dive op since AOW can be pretty much done during the regular diving schedule, and Rescue could be an afternoon (shore) deal most of the days after a couple of nice morning tanks. We are planning on staying 7 nights, but could extend that if needed a few days. The idea is to get AOW+Rescue, and a lot of fun diving in the process.
My idea is to stay at Casa del Mar or Blue Angel since they have shore diving, and I thought it would be good for practicing whatever we learn in our week's training.
Any views, recommendations or comments are welcome.
