Hello, I am a new diver. My son and I got our OW in December and are now planning an April trip to Cancun for a week of diving. So, I have a couple of questions.
1) Although we both love the resorts there, we are hoping to spend most of our time in the water and figured we wouldn’t need all the amenities of the resorts. I’ve looked into apartments and Hostels, but the reviews are very misleading. One person says it’s great, the next says it’s a dump. Suggestions would be very much appreciated.
2) We are trying to decide if we should go ahead and do the AOW course or just pick out one of the weekly packages. We were really hoping for 2 dives a day for 5 days including the CeNotes and Cozumel. Is it really worth getting the Advanced cert?
3) I already read some of the posts about the dive shops in that area, but would love some more advice on who you all think would help us to make the most out of trip.
Thanks in advance for all the comments and advice!
