Cabo San Lucas and Ixtapa suck. I haven't dove Puerto Vallarta and
Huatulco, but they are rumored to suck too.

Huatulco, but they are rumored to suck too.

I've been to all except Huatulco. Puerto Vallarta is a pit. The only thing
worse is Acapolco. Ixtapa is the best of the bunch. We found a nice resort
in Zinwatanejo (sorry about the spelling). For $25 ea and a $10 cab ride
you can spend the day on the beach. In Cabo & PV, the locals will hound
you to death to buy something.

Thanks for your comments but did you scuba dive at any of them?

I just responded to your same question in rec.travel.cruises,
giving you some references to read posts by Greg Mossman, not
knowing you had SEPARATELY posted the same question in
rec.scuba.locations.

I think I gave a better response point to Greg's posts in
rec.scuba.locations than his present response of "it sucks",
though the latter is true.

Why didn't you just cross-post in the two groups, since the
subject is of interest almost equally of the readers in both groups.

Even for the strong anti-cross-posting ng readers, it is generally
consider a worse practice to SEPARATELY post the same
question in multiple newsgroups.
