Mexico and the Caribbean

Travel Masters offers great trips to Mexico and the Caribbean.  There are many, many destinations and we cannot feature each one on this page!!  But, we can offer additional information on some of the better destinations ...

Here are some great options for you... 
Cozumel * Bonaire * Roatan * Cruises

Cozumel -  

Cozumel is probably the most famous dive destination in the world!  It is easily accessed, reasonably priced, offers a great variety of accommodations and has spectacular diving.
	Funjet Vacations offers the best packages to Cozumel.  You can take advantage of their charter flights, use scheduled air on Continental Airlines or just book a land package.  Diving is purchased separately.     There are many dive operators in Cozumel.  Travel Masters can choose the best dive shop depending on where you are staying, the type of diving you want to do, your level of diving experience and your diving preferences.

Bonaire -

Bonaire is the best dive destination for new divers, for dive-aholics and  anyone who wants a great dive vacation!  Bonaire boasts over 80 pristine dive sites within the Marine Park, more than 350 types of fish and 110 different varieties of coral plus perfect year round conditions for diving. In addition to the diving, there are other great adventures to enjoy ... snorkeling, biking, hiking, kayaking ...
 

Bonaire is much easier to access than it has been in prior years!  You can now fly to Bonaire on American or Air Jamaica.  This is a vast improvement over the old ALM (now Dutch Caribbean Airlines) which never seemed to fly on time or keep the baggage in one place!

The climate in Bonaire is quite pleasant - average temperature is 820F.  The water temperature is generally around 800F.  While the official currency in the Guilder, the US Dollar is widely accepted.  The electricity is 110V.  The island is 112 square miles with the highest point at 784'!!  English is widely spoken - as well as Dutch, Spanish and Papiamento.  And, the best part is that they drive on the right hand side of the road!! Travel Masters has two favorite resorts in Bonaire.  These resorts have an excellent reputation, great accommodations and offer a fabulous diving experience.

Buddy's Dive Resort - offers a range of accommodations from hotel rooms to 3 bedroom condos!  They are located right on the beach, so shore diving is just a few steps away.  Buddy's is also famous for their Dive and Drive packages including lodging, dives, daily breakfast and a rental vehicle so you can enjoy the copious shore diving around the island.
Plaza Resort Bonaire - offers a more upscale experience in Bonaire.  They have 200 suites and 1 and 2 bedroom villas.  The Plaza Resort leisurely sprawls over 12 acres of landscaped elegance, offering comfort of a soul refreshing kind!  Dive boats depart from the private marina at the resort - but all shore diving is a drive away.

Roatan -

	Roatan is another one of the great dive destinations in the world.  It is remote and exotic and offers great diving!  Continental Airlines now offers nonstop flights from Houston to Roatan on Saturdays.  This allows people to avoid the dreaded TACA Airlines flights - famous for lost baggage, overbooking and denying boarding to passengers holding tickets!!  Yea Continental!!
There are many resorts in Roatan.  It's hard to decide which one is the best!  But, Travel Masters has a favorite - Bay Islands Beach Resort. Bay Islands Beach Resort (BIBR) is an excellent experience.  The resort is family owned and operated.  They offer great service, great diving and a wonderful atmosphere at the resort.
