jt_83 Posted January 9, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2012 It appears that I am a victim of the Carnival Glory itinerary change. I was set to dive in Belize and now I'm going to Costa Maya instead. Can anyone recommend a dive operator? I prefer not to dive the cattle boats with Carnival. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie S. Posted January 9, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Yes, the best is Gypsea Divers just down from Cuarenta Canones Hotel. Ask for Catherine and said Laurie and Russ sent you. Just dove with them last week and we're going back for a two-week stay later this year. Forgot, they are on Facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt_83 Posted January 9, 2012 Author #3 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Thanks Laurie for the response. I was booked with Sea Sports in Belize (I had read before that you liked them as well) and was really looking forward to diving with them, but not too much I can do about these last minute changes.

Laurie S. Posted January 10, 2012 #4 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Trust me, the diving in Costa Maya is much better than Belize. You will love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirvin0500 Posted January 10, 2012 #5 Share Posted January 10, 2012 We went with Maya Palms in March and it was wonderful. Great wall dive. We saw an approx 30 ft whale shark on the way up. Great lunch, good folks. Same folks that own and operate Bonne Terre Mines in Missouri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Thunder Posted January 15, 2012 #6 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I would second Maya Palms. I had my dives scrubbed with them back in 07 when the hurricane took out Costa Maya. But I did my homework and they have a great reputation and also if you are going there with non-divers they can use the resort and what not at a reduced rate. Both Maya Palms and Bonne Terre Mine in Missouri are on my list Thunder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Tillie Posted January 28, 2012 #7 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Maya Palms is great. They are very professional and have good equipment. Have dived with them twice. Reef is only about a 5 minute boat ride. Diving in Costa Maya is much better than Belize. You are lucky they changed your itinerary. The resort is nice with a pool and restaurant.
