I just got certified in Bocas del Toro this February so I still feel a little insecure about diving...just want to do more! My spouse is not interested in diving so I am looking for a dive buddy to dive Belize with in August. I am flexible, however and can work with another person’s schedule as I am retired. I am 63 but strong and fit. I regularly run, hike and swim for exercise. If you are single and looking for a casual friend to do some diving with, please write. Maybe we can work something out!

ncopple - 11/10/2016 7:13 PM What sort of wet suit is best for diving in water 70 degrees F? Going to Hawaii this winter and have tried on a couple of wet suits that fit except too tight on my calves...my feet don’t go in really easy either. RcDyno - 11/15/2016 2:09 PM I dive in 72 degree water year round in Florida and I use a 3m wetsuit no issues MgaTd - 11/26/2016 2:07 PM I’d suggest a 3 m full body wet suit, also I use lycra socks to help get in and out of the suit chemist - 8/09/2018 1:35 PM A 3 or 5 mm work’s well (if you get chilled easily go for a 5 mm w/ gloves) ... But body mass is an important factor ....I dive with gloves & a skull cap

salham - 10/30/2016 8:47 PM Did you ever go on your Belize trip? My first trip this June was to Belize, I went to Turneffe Flats Resort and it was AMAZING! If you are interested I would like to go again! DoryC - 4/02/2018 9:11 PM Did you go back to Belize again? When are you going? I would like to go too!

DiveEtte - 9/20/2016 12:57 AM I want to go to Belize too! Let’s go! DoryC - 4/02/2018 9:12 PM Just wondering if you went to Belize after this post. I would like to go too! DiveEtte - 4/02/2018 9:33 PM Your on! Just looking for another solo who enjoys life! Guys on here are fake - and it’s noy about hookup! Lordy when do people grow up! Lol hope never but be real! No fake- I’m a republican!! Stay in touch sweets! Fran DoryC - 4/02/2018 11:00 PM I can see that! All the dive buddy requests I’ve been getting are all males and I’m just looking for female dive buddies that can maybe share a room with and that’s it. I want to get back to diving but not spend so much money on it. So I figured that if I can find a dive buddy and we can decide where to go and book everything ourselves it will be a little bit cheaper than getting the package deal. Dory

scubalinda - 4/11/2016 10:10 AM Hi Nancy. I admire that you followed the desire to get certified. I will not likely be diving again before the fall but I will contact you if I do and see if you want to join in. In Belize, will you go to Caulker or stay more mainland? ncopple - 4/12/2016 11:01 PM San Pedro, I think. Suggestions?

ncopple - 4/03/2016 12:36 AM Hi, well anxious mostly because I am still pretty new. Excited though!
