The winter doldrums had set in pretty well and the only way to shake 'em was to go back to one of my favorite (and affordable) dive locations - Cozumel Island. The protected reefs in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico offers some of the finest diving around. Have a look at the gallery! |

Well, normally I would be travelling here in the spring or fall, but the chance came up to go there in June and I took it. Diving-wise, Cozumel has been very good to us. I'll never tire of the Santa Rosa Wall or the wrecked Filipe. Have a peek in the gallery. |

South of Chicago at Kankakee, Illinois sits Haigh Quarry. This outstanding local, inland dive site features clear water, good equipment, and a simple, fun day of diving. The quarry has a nice fish population as well as a few "artifacts" on the bottom. Have a look. |

We recently went to Curaçao to dive the reefs of the southern Carribean. Based at Habitat Curaçao dive resort, we squeezed in 3 days of boat and 3 days of shore diving. Spectacular underwater scenery. We would go back here in a heartbeat! |
|
We went back to Cerulean Springs in the hills of Northwestern Kentucky. A very pleasant day - and for those of you who know what geocaching is, we placed a new cache on the bottom! |
|
This was primarily a Manatee discovery trip. In addition, we also dove the Rainbow River along with the Devil's Den and the Blue Grotto on the Florida aquifer system. Got some great pix! |
|
We loved Cozumel and the Quintana Roo Marine Preserve so much, we had to go back. Drift diving with a great team! "Mas Cervesa, por favor!" |

World-class deep and shallow reef diving in the British West Indies. Absolutely fabulous! |
|
A week of great reef diving around the Island of Cozumel, Mexico. Some of the best over-all diving I have experienced to date! |
|
Once again, high winds and very heavy seas kept us out of the Atlantic for most of our visit, but we got in a few good dives. We visited the Suloide and the Indra and had a great time. |
|
Panama City, Florida is the location - wrecks and sunken artifacts are the target! Recent storms made this an unusually exciting trip. |
|
Located in the northern pan-handle of Florida, Vortex Springs is a unique dive experience. The water is cold and clear with an abundent fish population. A cave at the bottom of the center makes this a good place to practice cave exploring. |
|
Mermet Springs is a spring fed, clear water diver's quarry located in southern Illinois near Metropolis. Among other things, they have a sunken 727 airplane to practice wreck diving. (It is the plane seen in the motion picture, "U.S. Marshalls" with Tommy Lee Jones.) Visit their website! |
|
Off the Stetson Banks, Texas, the Flower Garden tour is the some of the best boat diving available. |
|
Bull Shoals lake in northern Arkansas. The water is clear, the food is good and a good time was had by all. Dive emergency training was going on at the time so it got a little exciting at times! |
|
Offering both boat and shore diving, Belize is a tropical paradise! It has the second largest coral reef in the world. |
