Some great places to dive involve much more than the actual dive. There are many wonderful and exotic sites to explore – here are a few which give a total experience.
Cozumel is known for its great dives including some advanced dives into shipwrecks and caves. The team at Careyitos consistently gets rave reviews from divers who swim there for much more than just the excellent and thrilling dives themselves. The food, the service, and the extra care all come highly rated. Many reviews are offered by divers who have used this service on more than one occasion. Of course, Cozumel is known for its gorgeous beaches and plentiful entertainment areas.
The Florida Keys offer a wide variety of dives including a US Coast Guard ship which is upright under the water and some other wrecks as well. These are available for advanced diving. The caveat here is there are no guide services so you will need to find some locals who are going out to give you the most of the experience. Dive shops and lodgings along with great entertainment and relaxing spots make this a great diving location and the costs will be less here than in other areas.
If you would like to combine a wonderfully quiet vacation spot look into Wakatobi Dive Resort located in the Wakatobi archipelago in remote Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia on a small island called Onemobaa. No crowds, no noise, great diving in beautiful, clear, undisturbed waters. This best kept secret has been modernized with all the modern needs of world divers. It is complete with air-conditioned bungalows, beach side accommodations, and internet capabilities.
Near of far there are many places to dive. Take some time to explore more on these areas. Be safe, have a great time, and go take a dive.
