Sounds like jealousy to me.. Cuba has great diving, been there twice.

If at first you don't succeed, you run the risk of failure.

How many times you done Agamemnon?
Taketh the beam from thine eye, brah.
I've done the clear, warm and blue too.
Pale in comparison.

I've dove around Vancouver Island and Quadra Island. I prefer the
tropics myself, but, everyone has their own likes and dislikes.

America is the home of the free, except if they want to go to Cuba.
Then it has to be the home of the sneaky.
Where did you dive there, Dan? I've heard that diving isn't all that
great. I haven't had the chance to go... yet.

First trip was near Santiago. Had excellent snorkelling and pretty
good diving. Second time was Isle of Youth. Trip report available

Thanks for the info and trip report. Sounded like a lot of early
hours. Which one did you prefer?
Were there a lot of beaches at the Isle of Youth? My SO doesn't dive
but she loves waking beaches.

There is a very nice beach at the El Colony Hotel. There is also a
very nice beach at your dive site. You can rent scooters from the
hotel and probably get there. I'm not sure that this is true because
I didn't actually try it. However, all those merchants that showed up
on cruise ship day got there via land, so it must be possible.

Maybe. But it's still warm.
