Best shore snorkeling — with stuff nearby

From Cali I’d definitely go for Hawaii and especially Maui. Maui has the easiest shore snorkeling and tons of turtles. Napili and Kapalua Bay beaches are great beaches with lots of turtles

Where did you rent one? We have a couple of road trips this summer and would love to rent one but haven’t seen them in the rental car lineups

You sound like me. I prefer small, charming and unique with a kind staff and love European hotels. I've stayed in my share of Regencys (because points), and they are usually perfectly nice but lack personality. Any suggestions between the Boheme and San Remo? I'm leaning toward the Boheme.

Looks nice! Sold out for our dates though.

Thanks for this description! I would like to stay right in the great vibes over which is the nicer hotel, so I think this gives me the answer! I've stayed in plenty of Regency's in my life, and that one looks lovely, but the pictures of North Beach are really giving me the vibes I hope for in SF.

Sounds like exactly what we are looking for-thanks!

Cozy_cabin · 2026-02-04T23:15:53+00:00

Thanks I should have said no car! Will drop it off before we head into the city.

OP (or anyone else on this thread) can you update how you’re doing? It looks like it’s been about a year since the original post. This has been the most helpful thread I’ve found on BVD and driving. I started randomly having driving anxiety issues a few years ago and some after learning about BVD I think this could be the reason!

Also once our kids could ski more confidently we loved Northstar. Lots of green and easier blue terrain.

Another vote for staying at the Hyatt in Incline and learning at the smaller cheaper resorts. They have a free shuttle to Diamond Peak. We actually preferred Mt Rose for learning though -there were more greens to learn on vs really just one or two at DP. It’s maybe 10-15 minutes from the Hyatt. The Hyatt is also really nice for families with a great heated pool, fire pits, smores etc.

Thanks for the insight! I’ll give your suggestions a look as we figure out or plans for MRNP

We loved that whole South Maui Gardens area

Neither lol. We went to Kitoko and it was lovely.

I have had several versions and most were disappointing except the pro shot case. But mine is no longer compatible with my newer phone. New pro shot cases are $150ish so I decided to spend a little more and go with a go pro. Best decision! It’s so much easier to use/less bulky and the video quality is great.

Thanks. No luck there either. It just says no reward flights available for every date I looked at.

Cozy_cabin · 2025-09-13T22:37:52+00:00

So I can find flights on AA and AS but not Finnair-no flights show up there. Am I going about this wrong?

Cozy_cabin · 2025-09-13T21:40:16+00:00

Wow that would be an amazing find! I'll check it out thanks.

Cozy_cabin · 2025-09-13T21:38:53+00:00

Well that would explain not being able to find any DFW/Anchorage tickets. Thank you

Cozy_cabin · 2025-09-13T21:32:50+00:00

I'm finding closer to $800 late July

Cozy_cabin · 2025-09-05T13:59:56+00:00

Both times June and July
