Dive luggage recommendations, please
Hi, For my last trip, I was looking for a bag that was large enough, had wheels, and was as light as possible. In the end, I bought the Mares Cruise Roller, enough space for one full diving equipment (BCD + fins + regulator + wetsuit + clothes + other stuff) and in only 3kg. Is also foldable when empty. It was the lighter I could find big enough for my needs. It has the disadvantage that once it is full it is not very stable when upright, but not big deal. It's proven to be very helpful for me.

Cabo Verde - No Stress!
Thanks for the report, interesting place, not too far away for me. Although I have to add that I don't like to see dead fish in a diving report. For me Fish are friends not food!

New full aluminum Seafrogs housings
Thanks for the info Atus, Just out of curiosity, is the Sea Frogs housing compatible with for example Inon viewfinder? The port chart is indeed very short, for example for Nikon Z8 only Nikon z 14-30 and 14-24 listed? No macro?

Very good photographs!! The penultimate one had a huge impact on me; content too sensitive for me.

Fish and Marine creatures ID books
I found a very interesting webpage for frogfish. I’m trying to identify images from 2019 and it’s been quite useful. I’m struggling with them TBH 😅 www.frogfish.ch

Thank you very much lylefk, As Troporobo has said great info! And stunning images as well!! Going with a group is kind of hard for us, the only possibility is going solo (with wife). My dream would be a boat of 2 with the whales, being also kind of antisocial that would be great, no talk, only swim. 😅🤣 I have seen that for example in Tongan expeditions, have very few days available for September 2026. Thanks again, Cheers.

Struggling with Buoyancy
I have used in the past some tyre balancing weights and I wouldn’t recommend it. After a few dives they began to rust.

As an update: I have contacted several operators and it seems almost all are fully booked for September 2026, that’s wild. I thought people would book early, but I didn't imagine it would be this early. Wow. You have to book before even being able to know the flights schedule and price… I have mainly focus in Eua and Haapai, contacting almost every resort that appears in the website Troporobo has linked. I hope I'm not mistaken, with so much haste...
