July 2005 i love los Roques it is where I did my first dive ever and since then I have been foaming at the mouth to get back there to go diving again. I'm going in 3weeks and I can't wait!!! It's AMAZING

April 2006 There was a lot of plancton in March, which decreses the visibility, but increases the chance of a whale shark and manta encounter. The night dives were fantastic due to massive plancton fluorescence

March 2002 I have always dive during Carnaval Holydays, and it has been great, however during the summer months the water is more clear and warmer. Sesto Continente is the dive operator I have used, and they are great. They offer very good packages.

January 2004 I've been to Los Roques on several occasions in different seasons and times of year. I've always had great dives here. There's a variety of both reef and pelagic life, and the coral is very healthy. I always dive with Acuatics DC. They are responsible, care about what they are doing, and really know the area.

March 2005 My first visit. I will definately be back for more. It IS possible to do this trip more economically without a package from the US, especially if you speak Spanish.
