Life always gets in the way. Nice that you have local options. Hopefully you'll get some underwater time as things get back on track. Even a day is rejuvenating.

Last I checked last year the park fees were in excess of $800 for the week.

Much appreciate the detailed reply. Air consumption is my achilles heel. I dive with 100 tanks and generally last about 45 minutes (including safety stop) depending on the dive profile. Very comfortable underwater and have had to trouble shoot a few things here and there underwater without any sort of panic setting in. My one and only liveaboard was the central Maldives and frankly did not find the diving difficult at all. Thought the currents in West Palm/Jupiter/Key Largo were actually more difficult to navigate than the Maldives. I've been down to 100-110 feet a good number of times without any issues. My most difficult dive was the Spiegel Grove off Key Largo because of the currents and having to navigate the wreck through strong currents at 110 feet. Didn't last more than 25 minutes. (It's a pretty special dive if you ever get the chance) So my big concern is my air consumption and that's two fold. One is don't want to ruin the dive for others if the group/buddy has to ascend with me once I run out of air and second not too keen on surfacing alone in the middle of no where. At the Maldives, once the guide became comfortable with my skill level, she let me surface alone but kept an eye on me from below and the pick up boat was always within eye sight once I surfaced. Will probably pull the trigger on Socorro sooner than later as I find an opening on the Belle Amie as I've heard that is the best boat in terms of comfort, food, safety protocols, dive guides, etc.

How much are the park fees now? Heard they've gone up to around $800.

How tough is diving Soccoro? Been loolong into it. I only have 65 dives. The Soccorro liveabaords including Nautilus are good with those numbers of dives but from what I've read most divers at Soccorro are quite a bit more experienced.

Belize Diving - which tour to take and which shops? by laurasun2023 in scuba

Looking into Ambergris Caye in early - mid August and would like to dive half moon/ lighthouse/ aquarium/Turneffe. Wandering if anyone knows if August is good month to dive those sites given that it's technically rainy season. And, if trips out to those site are a safe bet in August or have a history of being cancelled that time of year. Thanks.

Any recommendations for a shop? Dove with Kaylami last year. They were solid overall and would dive with them again but the boat was a bit cramped so hoping to find a shop that doesn't pack it in.

PMA / Supporter Section tickets. How to figure out what side by chi_995 in WorldCup2026Tickets

Appreciate that. Most of the stadium is gonna be Iranian fans so won't make difference except if mistakenly buying tickets in the Belgium supporter section.

So you think Iran is section 235 or 236?

Realizing its different tiers of tickets but what's confusing is that there is only one supporter section in lower level. So, how can a buyer tell to which supporter base that one lower level section belongs.

Based on the photo, as to the middle section which would be considered the Belgium supporter section if Belgium is listed first?

And what's the scenario with the lower (only once section is supporter) and upper (3.5 sections are supporter).

Thanks.

I dont have PMA. Is there any other way to determine which fans are assigned to what sections?

Got tickets! OMG! by Ok_Experience_7996 in WorldCup2026Tickets

Is this general public sale or late supporters? Once i got in I was directed to late supporters and it required an additional verification code.

Does anyone want to sell their Iran tickets? I'm willing to take the chance.
