Where should I take Inspi for a summer break

jptaylor9 · 27th July 2005, 18:39

Hi,

After dragging Inspi on lots of cold UK dives, I though I'd treat it to some diving in warmer conditions.

Where is a good place to go for some gentle shore based diving to build up hours? Air dil, 40m max OK.

I've only ever taken mine to Cyprus - defo 4 days good dive to be had with Rob Jones (Dive Tek) on the Zenobia.

Bearing in mind weight allowance, the states might be good - 2 x 32kg automatically!

Check out La Paz Mexico on the Baha Peninsular. Diving the sea of cortez is absolutely awesome. Most big palagics are there, the sea is warm, vis good and lime, cylinders & O2 are available at the best dive centre in La Paz.
See www.cortezclub.com you can book flights, hotel (La Concha Club) all thro' the Cortez Club.
The best bit is it is cheap as chips when you get there

The US baggage allowance is shitloads
The diving is within the air dill range and at El Baho the inspie aint gonna scare the Hammerheads, Dolphins are abundant along with Humpbacks Southern Right and Blue Whales

Want to know more? do the PM thing

Cyprus was great - I dived with Dive Tech and Rob - still need to do a write up on it, but rob can organise great value accomodation as well as great diving.

They have a great shore dive there and some awsome scooters to play with too...

I have fond memories of scootering over the top of JonnyB and cackling when he looked all around for me and wondered what was pushing the water into hsi head - hehehehe

Red Sea is great. My recommendation would be Orca in Safaga. If you don't mind a simple hotel, you could take Orca Village right around the dive-base or - 200m apart - the Lotus bay hotel. Orca is a very good basis (at least 2 or three dive-guides are diving Inspirations themselves). Mostly German speaking, but they can speak english as well. :-)
You go out by boat. Two dives a day. Very relaxed.
