ScubaBoarders on Cozumel - December, 2008

[Harro10]

nbaleva- asking for dive op recommendations on this site is opening up a can of worms. Everyone has their favorites and they do differ on their levels of service and the type of boats they use. A few you might want to check out are Aldora, Blue Angel, Blue XT-Sea, Bottom Time and a search of this site will turn many others good ones.
Here is one of the threads with some recommendations, http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/co...modation-advice-solo-2-week-vacation-coz.html

Good luck with which ever op you choose and enjoy Cozumel.

Will be there in late Feb, early March.

Hey Nude- we'll be at Caribe Blu/Blue Angel 2/22-3/1 maybe see you there? My second trip to this dive op and hotel, should be a great week.

Many Scubaboarders have also used Blue XT-Sea and been pleased.

me and my buddy will be there from Nov 27 to Dec 7. Staying at Hotel Cozumel and still have to pick a dive operator. We're both advanced divers and so want to do some of the deeper sites. Any recommendations on dive operators ? Anyone want to meet up ?

Everyone has their opinion on operators... Just be aware that no good operator will take you to "advanced" sites (Barracuda, Punta Sur Sur, Maracaibo...) until they check on your skills. It is not meant to be a slap in the face, it is for safety. You will also have to take into account the conditions must be right to go to some of the "advanced" sites, again for safety. From what I've heard some operator's will only take you to the "advanced" sites for an extra fee.
We have used Aldora for the last eight years.
Have fun!!!
