 Caribbean isles, e.g. Little Cayman,Saba,Bonaire,Cozumel,Roatan,Turks and
Caicos;Belize;Costa Rica;Fiji;Red Sea in Eilat,Israel. 

Dive Conditions

130 feet max, although most dives were much shallower. Allowed to go with
own buddy after diving with group/divemaster at least once.  

The large 53 foot "Liberacion" had many tables useful in changing
film.No particular camera table, but boat had a couple of rinse tanks. The
crew would hand you the camera once in the water. The smaller 42 foot boat
"Realidad" had only one gallet table that the cook used to
prepare food. Changing film was more of a hassle. No camera table. One
rinse tank. Boat too crowded when only one boat was used on Weekend,
either Sat. or Sunday.  

Overall Rating

Saw many of the smaller mobilus rays on surface and underwater. No
encounters with the larger Manta rays, Hammerhead sharks, or Whale sharks.
El Bajo had lots of moray eels. Several dive sites had large schools of
tropical fish, and ample varieties of tropicals. The wreck of the Fang
Ming had a resident seahorse along with large fish. Los Islotes  dive site
great for Sea Lions. The dive operation offered three dives per day. It
took a long time, over 2 hours, to get to the dive sites on the larger 52
foot boat. Returned to my hotel in La Paz late in the evening on most dive
days. Divemaster Joe very knowledgeable on marine life. They only run one
boat on Weekends, so it felt very crowded on either the 42 or 53 foot dive
boat on that particular day. No camera tables, but boats have rinse tanks.
Nitrox available. Crew and staff generally helpful.
