Greetings. I am planning a trip to cozumel for august 1 (give or take 1 day) for 8 days. I've never dive travelled before so I don't know what to expect.
First, I want pictures to remember this by. What would be a good camera? I was thinking of the Sea & Sea DX-860 and its sports package that has strobes & lenses.
Second, while this will be arranged mostly as a dive package, it seems I'll have ample times in the afternoons and night to make my own dive plans outside the package. What would be some good things to do (especially night diving)?
Third, is it better to purchase a packaged deal or arrange it yourself? It seems that all the resort packages have their own dive boats but so many people prefer other dive operations. I'm assuming I'll just have to pay more. Does it matter? New to this, I don't know what to expect or the best way to go about this.
I'm thinking of statying either at Scuba Club or Iberostar.
Thanks,
Shawn
