Trip Report Scuba Club Cozumel Jan 28 2012

Really? Read the FIRST response post where he is told, "I am glad you didnt have fun because Cozumel dont really need people with your attitude or opinion !" Or do I not understand the concept of flaming?

As far as flaming goes, that was very mild if it was flaming at all. Ever been on Usenet?

As a matter of fact, I DON'T like McDonald's. And I, too, have been to "mecca" [Palau, in our case] and are planning a long, expensive trip to Lembeh next December. But this isn't an option for everybody for every vacation; no, Cozumel can't compare to the locations you mention--neither in bio-diversity OR in cost. What's a diver to do when he has neither the money nor the time for Micronesia--forego diving altogether?

It's been several years since our first visit to Cozumel, where we stayed at Scuba Club for Spring break; we are returning next week, again to SCC, again for Spring break. If there's a better deal for people who want to (comfortably) eat, sleep, and dive, then I haven't found it*--not in Bonaire, Utila, Belize, the Keys, certainly not in Cayman, and not even the beloved CCV in Roatan. So if you want a dive vacation that won't break the bank, with flights that are relatively painless and inexpensive, with decent and varied diving, Cozumel pretty much fits the bill, IMHO. And just because the diving isn't as good as the PI or Indonesia, doesn't mean it is without merit. That said, drift diving isn't for everybody, particularly UW photographers, for obvious reasons.

Of course, I may come back from SC and post an absolutely scathing report on the resort and Cozumel, but I hope not!

*Now, if YOU know of a better deal, for goodness' sake, SHARE!

when are you going to be at SCC???? ... we are there at the end of March-beg of April (our 3rd trip there, can't wait!!!).
