The weekend offers plenty of activities for all ages at Jules’ Undersea Lodge, 51 Shoreland Dr., Key Largo, FL 33037.
Each day will showcase diving demonstrations with various hardhat helmets, including a Mark V and Miller-Dunn, plenty of photo ops, food by M.E.A.T. Eatery, art activities, and games for those in attendance. Spectator admission is $15. Underwater Diving Experience is $75 per person, with each attendee receiving a free pass to the History of Diving Museum in Islamorada.
Certified divers need to pre-register for the Sea Hunt-style dive experience, featuring an underwater tour in the lagoon around Jules’ Undersea Lodge using a “classic” double-hose regulator. Participants will also have the opportunity to enter the moon pool and meet Dr. Deep Sea, Joe Dituri, who is on a 100-day mission in the underwater habitat. This unique diving experience is $75 per person and includes gear orientation, a dive, an underwater photo op, and a free pass to HDM. Time Slots TBA. Plan on two hours for your vintage diving experience.
