Yo Spikey,
Great choice first time out! Seaview is an older hotel but well
kept, and the in house restaraunt is pretty good. Bob Soto's
runs well organized trips,very safe. Depending on the season
the boats may be a little crowded, but most rides are short and
usally the seas are calm, so no big deal.
The house reef at Seaview is decent and great for night dives.
Within walking distance ( to the right ) is Sunset House with it's
easy shore access, new mermaid ststue, and small landingcraft
wreck just offshore. Rent tanks from sunset divers and hit the
reef. A short walk to the left of Seaview puts you at Parrots
Landing, this has another interesting shore dive.
Downtown is less than a mile from Seaview. This area is away
from the hustle and bustle of seven mile beach, but close enough
if you're driving or cabbing. Have a great trip and let us know
how it went!!!
