Hello again everyone! After all of your helpful advice, I booked August 15-20 at Mata Rocks. I leave in 2 days and I am very excited!

Two questions: First, the forecast for my trip looks like it will be cloudy and/or raining the whole time. I am hoping this is just some rain each day but there is some sunshine too? What type of clothes should I bring in chance of rain?

Next, I want to buy snorkel gear to bring with me. I went to Target yesterday and they had some nice gear but it was for kids. I'm in Southern California. Any suggestions for places to try today -- Sportsmart? Big 5?

Thanks!

Go to an actual dive shop, they usually have snorkel gear. Much better gear at a decent price. Rent fins unless you absolutely want a pair, fit and hygeiene is not as important with fin as a mask. Spend more on a good mask and snorkel. You won't be sorry. Most shops will guarantee fit. The stuff at most sporting goods stores is garbage

No rain here. We need some!

Tell everybody at MataRocks ,Johnboy & Texasgal said "HI" & We'll see them Nov 10th. Thanks

suntravelgirl,

I am staying at Mata Rocks right now - arrived yesterday. There are a few puffy clouds in the sky and a slight breeze in the air. It's a bit hot but definitely manageable. You will have a great time! Erica and Sheila are waiting to serve you at Mata Rocks. Terry and Liz will be arriving today (the owners).

See you in a couple of days!
