I realized yesterday that, once again, the year is winding down to an end, and once again, I need to burn some vacation time...
My travel dates are fairly flexible, sometime between now and about December 10th.
I am looking at Ft Lauderdale, Key Largo, and Key West. I plan to bring all my own gear, except air tanks. I plan to dive about 5 or 6 days.
I am interested in input from divers who know the area. I would love to hear recommendations regarding:
Hotel Accomadations - I don't plan on spending much waking time there, so I want to keep it as cheap as possible.
Dive Center/Boat Operator - I would like to do 2-4 dives per day. I am not looking for the "cheapest" but I would like some recomendations for a quality shop at a reasonable price.
Food - What are some inexpensive, but palatable food options? I would even consider cooking it myself if my hotel room has a kitchen.
Dive Sites - I am not interested in wreck penetration dives, but other than that, I am excited at the opportunity to expand my glimpse of the wet side of this planet.
Thanks for any advice...
