My wife has become very interested in diving Belize, and I hear great things. We are currently 20 dives each, and very current - just off a Cabo trip with Catalina and Anacapa trips scheduled. We've done three or four wall dives and own gear. We'll probably be at 40 dives and maybe have advanced and nitrox training before going to Belize in late May.
Surfing the web I find web sites with some disturbing promotional material such as one touting decompression dives in the Blue Hole where having more than "resort diving qualification" is desirable. Without going into more detail I get the impression that there might be some "cowboy" dive operations to be avoided.
Could anyone recommend reputable operators in Belize? We are interested in either a live aboard or a shore based operator - maybe a mix of the two.
This is my first post on Scuba Board - been lurking for a while though and have read all of the Accident and Incident Reports and selected equipment posts. I think this site is a great resource.
Thanks
