Just returned from Cozumel.
What a blast.
I saw so many spotted eagel rays-one scared the crap out of me U/W at night-it was right in my face. I was afraid the stinger tail was going to hit me. Dove the north-San Juan-strong, wonderful current.
Saw a nurse shark creeping up behind me on Paso de Cedral.
I did 3 tank boat dives with Pascul's scuba shop. I have dove many times with Pascual. Boat is small but comfortable and fast. Here is the link:

The boat out of this shop is FAST. My friend and I were the only ones on the boat!!! We left at 0900 and were back at 1400. My Suunto Cobra dive computer is great and I recommend a dive computer for everyone who is doing multiple day dives.
Next time I go to Cozumel I want to do:
1.Rebreather drift dive starting from southern end and ending at northern end.....underwater all day long.
2. Dive the east side of the island.
3. FOUR tank boat dives. I could have handled another dive each day.
Sad part is that cruise ships are making it difficult for dive shops. Most dive shops are down about 50% from this time last year. This is probably due to the economy but also the Cozumel regulars are skipping Cozumel's cruise congestion for more remote locales.
