Hi Trent, we are coming to Culebra for a week followed by a week in Vieques. We are longtime divers and always travel with out own gear, minus tanks and weights. We, too, carry our regulators and computers on the plane. Also, make sure your dive knife is in your checked luggage (ask me how I know this) or it will be confiscated. We are more comfortable with our own equipment. I have it checked out and tuned up yearly. You will not get any breaks by the local dive tour operators for using your own equipment. Also, Taz Hamrick does not rent out any gear for shore dives. He said the other dive operator on the island does. I have toyed with the idea of mailing our gear by USPS several days before our arrival. Does anyone know how much this might cost? I mailed a chair hammock back from Loquillo in 2006 and it cost $50 and weighed almost nothing. I shudder to think what dive equipment might cost!!! Please write a trip report upon your return about your dive experiences. We will arrive July 26.
