I am a Open Water Diver who just started scuba diving. I’m only 13 but I love this sport. The only problem is that my parents want to go on a calm vacation while I want to scuba dive. Where should I go? And please, a vacation in the Caribbean.
Grand Cayman and Cozumel are probably the better scuba diving locals, however nearly all of the carribean has potentially good scuba diving.
Cozumel.
I’m going at the end of the month.
The beaches are fabulous…white sand, blue water…plenty of relaxation available for your parents under the cabanas.
The diving is amazing…world famous, really. There’s a spectacular natural reef, that lies in water that’s protected from the weather by the island. There are also many different artificial reef additions, that make the diving even more interesting. There’s an airplane there, that was sunk for a movie in the 1970’s, as well as many different types of old cannons, statues and other archaeological items.
Additionally, the dive community there is huge. There are a huge number of dive excursions available, for divers in just about every experience level.

What about La Source on Grenada? It is an all-inclusive resort on a beach: very close to the airport, but not noisy from planes. It has relaxation areas and a golf course, plus diving via boat (which is moored just in front of the resort): you swim from the shore to the boat, which is about 50 yards off shore. Are you qualified? If not, you’ll need to be before you can go diving with them.
