ScubaBoard Invasion Central 2022 Cozumel

[Craine]

Woohoo!!! I just put down the deposit for my space. My wife and daughter (7 years) will most likely be joining. My daughter obviously can't scuba dive, but she wants to go snorkeling. I am also going to book a swim with the Whale Shark Excursion for my daughter and I. Super excited to meet you down there! Anyone has young kids going? PS - my wife is not a diver.

Hey there, we are bringing our 9 and 7 year old boys who love snorkeling. My wife and I are diving, and my mother in law is watching the boys while we’re out. We’re going to book the whale shark excursion too.

@cardzard how do we book those Friday excursions? Call the shop?

I am glad there will be other kids there. I was planning on scuba diving in the morning, and taking my daughter snorkeling in the afternoon. I am not sure what my wife's plans are. She's more of the type to lay on the beach and relax.

I may have already asked this but here goes...

I assume people are flying in and checking into the hotel on Saturday. Since the boat days are 5 days, I assume that is Monday-Friday, and people check out and fly out the next Saturday. What about that Sunday, the day after arrival? Guessing that people do a gear check out in the water but what about the rest of the day?

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the diving days are Sunday-Thursday - with optional additional activities (whale sharks or denotes) on Friday.

I believe, as @Lucia said, basic dive days (boat & shore) are Sun-Thur.

My understanding is tanks should be available for arrival Saturday checkout-dives - possibly with pre-arrangement. I plan on doing "one" to get weighting sorted out as rig and exposure protection will be different (yet again.) My plane gets in (as of now) around 1:15, so I should have time before the group festivities begin.

Boat and Shore diving is Sun - Thru with a welcome tank on Saturday for shore diving.
Friday is up to you Whalesharks and Cenotes excursion are on Friday

boat, I believe.

i think its a three tank dive.

Cock-A-Doodle 3-Tank Dive Trip - Dive Paradise

Up with the sunrise in Cozumel for three spectacular drift dives. It’s a unique opportunity to experience something few divers get to witness… the “changing of the guard” on the reef, when the night shift checks out and the day crew checks in.

This sounds really interesting. I have never really done any drift dives if that's what this is, however. Should I be concerned? In other words, what level of experience would be recommended for these dives? Thanks.
