Posting photos or links

November 4, 2007 – 11:03 am
Hi all, so Maggie wants to post some, mmm... interesting photos but was having trouble attaching them to her comments. Seems that the toolbar doesn't come up for comments, just for posts. Also the posts page does have a preview button mags so maybe make posts rather than comments when you want to get fancy. I think that this is not too bad since the comments area comes up on the page automatically and it might look a little cluttered with a toolbar. Photos can still be posted in comments if they are online somewhere but you just have to use a bit of html as follows: <img src="put URL address of photo location here"> or for a link put <a href="put URL here"> write the text you want to link from here</a>. This will create a link to another web page or blog etc. you could also use ...

Reef Diving in Tulum, better than further North?

November 1, 2007 – 2:15 am
I get asked the question a lot whether it's worth going from Tulum to Cozumel to dive or even Playa Del Carmen or Akumal. Some of our divers have commented that they prefer it down here because the corals are plentiful, there is little or no current and few boats about. Also our relaxed style of diving helps of course and normally no limits on bottom time for shallow dives. Personally, I've been diving up and down this coast a bit and actually honestly do prefer Tankah to Pto. Aventuras, Playa and even Cozumel. Why? In a nutshell, I like small stuff and slow dives. Also Cozumel especially is noisy and a lot of boats. Coz. obviously for drift dives is really awesome but so many boats.... I may be biased so.... Any comments out there from people who might have been to a few spots.

Maggies a comin’

Good news is.... you're coming down again in November Maggie. We hope to see you around in Tulum a bit more this time. You can check out the new shop at El-Crucero Hotel. It's shaping up pretty nicely. Too many mosquitos right now but other than that, it's a nice spot to hang out and the bar and restaurant are right there, kind of like home sweet home. See you soon and lets dive together this time, hopefully we'll have another El Norte then. Right now the diving has been awesome in the ocean for the last few days with flat calm seas and excellent vis. Here's a couple of nice photos a customer, Ben Greazel sent to us from his dives a couple of weeks ago. Not bad for his first attempts at underwater photos. Thanks Ben for sending the photos
