Recommendations for accommodation/guides in Mexico

[steveh]

Do any of you esteemed gentlemen (or Paul) have any experience of diving in Mexico?
A chance has come up to go in November and I'm starting the hunt for accommodation, dive guides, sites and prices.
As I'm only cave rated I'm also thinking of doing full cave over there, mainly just for the chance to do some of the bigger caves and useful to prepare for Adv Cave here next year.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,

If you do full cave in the US, then you wont' have to do the full Advance Cave course here in Australia - just the cross over part. (Which I believe still involves some testing, but should avoid most of the double-up) 

Can't help with the accommodation side of things sorry... I'm yet to be fortunate enough to visit the states myself.

Wait for Rick to get back from France in a couple of weeks as he did Mexico last year

Thanks Craig, I'll chase him up then.

Ad - I have thought about just doing the crossover instead of the full adv cave. It's an option & I'll talk to a few instructors beforehand.  I've heard positive and negative things about doing it this way.   Although part of me is just stubborn & I'd like to say I've passed the full course here without a shortcut.
