Blurb from my trip report that I wrote about some dives that I did a few weeks ago.
Our launch point was right beside the blue lagoon and we spent part of our surface interval swimming in the waters there....

BTW Jason as I mentioned in the trip report it is pretty beautiful over there, stunning blah blah.
But the villas right by the lagoon are pretty pricey, hundreds of US$ per night.
However they're lots of others places to stay nearby in Port Antoino and San San that don't cost anywhere near as much.

Trip report, goes into a bit more detail of the area Portland and some other stuff.

Anyways, does anyone know where the movie was filmed??..........
The topside was awesome with tons of great reef shots. ........
I've been looking for a new place to go and I would definitely go to where this movie was filmed. The movie was made in 1980 (25 years ago) I just hope a lot hasn't changed since that time. Props to anyone that knows!!!!

Part of the movie was filmed here at the Blue Lagoon in Portland.
I included my trip report and the pictures because you mentioned that you were interested in travelling to where it was filmed.
Thought the trip report might have provided you with some nice background info, apologies if this wasn't what you were looking for.

Oops on my part. I apologize, I must have missed that part. That's cool that it was filmed in Portland I had no clue. Thanks for taking the time to let me see your trip report. BTW, how did you like those villas. Thanks again :D
 
Well i've never been a guest in anyone of these villas, but from what I hear it's pretty swanky, personal chef, masseuse, ocean view, blah blah.

If I had the cash though and were looking to spend a relaxed, romantic weekend locally i'd probably go there.
If you do a google search for "Blue lagoon villas" I think you'll find a link to the owners of the villas.
My impressions of the villas are in my trip report :D.
