What's really getting your senses screaming now though, is that the gravity which has dominated every movement you've made since the day you were born is not there any more. There is no up and no down and you're out of your seat experiencing the freedom 

that even your dreams underestimated. After a graceful mid-space summersault you find yourself at a large window and what you see is a view that you've seen in countless images but the reality is so much more beautiful and provokes emotions that are strong but hard to define.”- A quote from Virgin Galactic.

Under the Sea

Key Largo, Florida is a beautiful and enchanted place. Everywhere you look you can find amazingly gorgeous sights, white sand beaches, clear blue water, breath taking sunsets and a great time for everyone. There are just so many things you can do while visiting, like wine and dine, jet ski's, parasailing. But whats under the water?

Twenty-one feet below the surface of the ocean, among the tropical mangrove habitat of the Emerald Lagoon is where you will find Jules’ Undersea Lodge. Would you like to stay in an underwater hotel? Anyone can come and join in the fun. Just to get to this amazing one of a kind place, guests must scuba dive below the hotel and enter through an opening at the bottom of the lodge. Now you may think that just because its underwater that you wouldn’t have the same comfort  and care as a regular hotel but that is completely false, the only difference is that when you look out your window, instead of seeing the vast ocean, you get to witness the wonders of the unknown life below the surface. 

This mysterious place adds to the excitement because where is it located is also a natural nursery for numerous reef fish. And, “Marine life is actually enhanced by the presence of an underwater structure”, explains Ian Koblick, owner and co-developer of the Lodge. “Jules’ Undersea Lodge serves as an artificial reef, providing shelter and substrate for marine animals. And the flow of air to the Lodge constantly adds oxygen to the entire surrounding body of water, creating a symbiotic relationship between the technology of man and the beauty of nature.” As you might also think that this is a new thing, but this lodge has actually been used for research for for fifty years. The name comes from Jules Verne, author of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. “Jules’ Undersea Lodge is a tribute to the human quest for exploration and adventure.” Will you be apart of this adventure?
