Vicki, we dove Carlos Rosario from a boat so we didn't have to deal with the logistics of taking the gear there. We rented our tanks from the hardware store past the mini mas. I really enjoyed chatt

Thanks Trent for the report. How far did you have to carry your gear to Carlos Rosario? I know you can drive right up to Soldado. Where did you rent your tanks? We will hopefully be doing shore dives

We spent a week on Culebra mid-June with the goal of diving all day, every day. Mort is right. Snorkeling is cheaper and easier than dragging the gear around. Most of the good stuff is 30 feet or

Hey y'all! I really need to apologize for being so elusive. Life after Culebra has been a rat race. I so long for the laid back Culebra life, and the only way to cure that is to schedule another tr

Carlos Rosario is not reachable by car and you don't want to haul dive equipment on a 20 minute hike over the hill from Flamenco Beach! I've never snorkeled or dived Tamarindo fro

You should be able to arrange on the fly, unless you are going in July - the whole month is a high season. You can rent gear at Culebra Divers right at the ferry dock. If you just need tanks, you ca

This place has a pool (disclaimer - friends of mine!) You would need a car as it's high above town, but it's nice and peaceful. The view is of the bay and you can see Vieques on a nice day.

I'll mention too that the glass bottom boat is a lot of fun. Pat is a great captain & guide. For the non-snorkel types - though she offers that as well - it is a chance to see what is down there witho
