We recently had a couple of friends celebrating a special anniversary. To mark the milestone, we were lucky enough to be invited along with a few other friends to join them on a Bahamas weekend cruise. Our friend took care of organizing everything and reserved several cabins abord the Celebrity Reflection leaving out of Port […]
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.
This spectacular wreck is one of the main draws for diving in Cayman Brac. Sunk in 1996, the M/V Captain Keith Tibbetts is a Russian military frigate, destroyer #356, which has been turned into an artificial reef. After almost 30 years, it has a lot of growth on it and is nicely covered in sponges […]
We generally like to have a dry day before our flight out after a week of diving, and even though recommendations are for an 18-hour window after the last dive before flying, we like to do 24 hours for some extra margin. With a 7am flight, that meant sitting out the last day’s morning dives […]
When we first saw a cruise itinerary that did Cozumel, Costa Maya, Belize, and Roatan the first thing that came to mind was scuba diving. What a great way to experience multiple top-notch dive locations and have a cruise ship transport us around! So, is it a good idea to take a cruise with the […]
We had been curious about scuba diving in the Bahamas for a while. We have friends that had spent time at Stuart Cove’s in Nassau, and we also heard about other good dive spots on Grand Bahama. The Bahamas is well known for its shark diving, and I must say, that made us a little […]
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.
Like many divers, we like to add a dry day to the end of our dive holidays to both have a little extra time before flying and to let our gear dry out before packing up. For those looking to do the same or looking for non-diving activities, here are five things to try on […]
