In this section we highlight interesting dive trips we’ve taken.
We were on our way to scuba dive in Wakatobi, a small island in Indonesia, and added a pre- and post- stay in Bali to acclimate and give us some buffer between our international and domestic flights. From Miami we flew Qatar airways through Doha, where we also had time to do a little sightseeing […]
With all we had read about the Wakatobi Dive Resort, we had high expectations. And we weren’t disappointed! We have to admit that all the good things we had heard turned out to be true. Run like a Swiss clock, every detail was taken care of making the experience of staying at Wakatobi simply a […]
We dove for a week in Cayman Brac with a 17-dive package from Cayman Brac Beach Resort. See our resort review here Diving is on-site and run by Reef Divers. There are at least four boats but as the resort wasn’t full, we had two boats going out daily during our stay. Our boat, the […]
We had been to Grand Cayman a couple of times before but we were excited to have a chance to visit one of the two smaller sister islands, Cayman Brac. The Cayman Brac Beach Resort is owned and operated by the same owners as the Little Cayman Beach Resort.
We had recently done a trip to Cambodia where we flew through Bangkok and this gave us the perfect opportunity to do a short local flight to Phuket for a bit of scuba diving. We had also explored diving destinations closer to Bangkok, but most reviews suggested that the diving would be better in Phuket. […]
When we first visited spice island, Zanzibar, we were not scuba diving certified and we snorkeled the beautiful warm waters near our resort. We took an excursion made up of a mixed boat of divers and snorkelers and after their dive one Italian lady looked at us and asked, “why don’t you get certified?” What […]
We spent a wonderful week of diving in Curaçao and loved it. Even though we’re in Florida and dive regularly here, the 100+ foot visibility, the close to shore drop-off, and the healthy reefs full of life made diving in Curaçao a treat.
We were happy to get away for a week of diving in Curaçao, where we stayed at the Marriott Beach Resort. While not a dive resort as such, the Curaçao Marriott Beach Resort does have an on-site dive shop and is well located to hit the popular dive sites.
The US Virgin Islands had been on our radar for a long time and with all the travel restrictions, organizing a dive vacation in St. Thomas seemed like the ideal plan. Since it’s a United States territory, no covid test was required to come back to the mainland. Perfect! While the resort bills itself as […]
Bonaire has been high up on our list as one of the top places to go for a scuba diving vacation. It’s one of the best shore diving destinations in the world with pristine reefs thriving with marine life. In fact, all the surrounding waters are part of the Bonaire National Marine Park. This means that […]
