Looking at airfare this morning for the 3rd week in June from Denver

Barbados - $584 RT
Belize City - 734 RT
BVI (Beef Island) 952 RT

June is a time I might actually be able to go, if I can afford it. Can't wait to see where the trip will be!

[Resqdew]

Any chance the dates might be June 11 to 18th? Never hurts to ask......

[Landlocked Dive Nut]

It very well may be those dates, because the Dominica trip ends on June 1....that would give Kamala a week out of the water to attend to business.

.....but we'll have to see what the Wench pulls out of her hat!

These dates also work for me..

[WreckWench]

That is basically the time I am trying to lock down for all the reasons given. Without my computer I am dead until Monday which is when I should have my new one. Thank you! kamala

[Bubbles]

Has a decision been made regarding where you will "BE" in June?

[WreckWench]

Looking seriously at Barbados, Hawaii or St Croix.

Sorry gang...hope to finalize this week! Thank you! kamala

[scubaski]

FWIW
prefernce 1: St Croix--never been
2: Barbados- Fun place, will repeat
3: Hawaii - a indecision is a no decision

IF this is a vote..

1)Hawaii (easiest to get to and always wanted to check it out)
2)Barbados
3) St. Croix, most difficult travel for me..

[WreckWench]

Spoke with several vendors about other options for June if Barbados does not work out for this year.

1. Hawaii (Kona for Manta Rays) will still be chilly water in June. Most likely 76-78.
2. Looks like St Croix can be done for under $1000 for the week with at least breakfast included and 3 boat dives daily. The hotel will be 5 miles from the operator so we will have shuttles set up to take people back at lunch, 3pm and say 5pm or so to get ready for dinner. We'll do lunch at cane bay where all the awesome shorediving is. I am still working on the logistics to see how this would work and of course if it will work.
3. Barbados is all pretty contained and they love Stan and SingleDivers.com and we are now working on price.


NOTE: Any trip NOT made this year will be automatically set up for 2012.

[Resqdew]

If this destination is still up for suggestions, then Barbados would be my first choice, especially for the ease of operations mentioned by K.

If St Croix was selected, I'd seriously consider going back with this group.

Thanks!

[WreckWench]

Yes the destination is still a bit up in the air...and we WILL be going someplace. Just need to lock in the right price and right deal!

Working it! kamala

Cool, as airfare to Barbados is up $200rt in the last month, so the sooner the better! St. Croix involves a plane change to Winnair in Puerto Rico, hoping it doesn't have strict weight restrictions..
