[quote=Holty54:...regarding best time of year for weather, hotel accomodation, whether shore based diving is best or liveaboard, is it best to take my own kit or hire. I am BASC quailified Sports Diver to 35m (120ft) Nitrox certified, 60+ dives, ( will i need deeper dive qualification ?).[/quote:
December, the temp was in the mid to upper 80’s F. We did the Odyssey liveaboard and LOVED it. Make sure to bring your nitrox card and dive nitrox while you are there. Most of the dives are less than 120 feet, but diving 4-5 dives a day for a week, it is easy to come up on (and go over) your no deco limits.
