Shotgun 1 #2 May 7, 2012 Not quite so fancy, but more affordable.... there is an underwater "hotel" in the Florida Keys too: http://jul.com/ I've never been, but I've been interested since I heard of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davjohns 1 #7 May 7, 2012 And that question greatly reduced my interest in SCUBA in and out of the hotel... I'm ok with passing other guests on my way in and out.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #8 May 7, 2012 QuoteAnd that question greatly reduced my interest in SCUBA in and out of the hotel... I'm ok with passing other guests on my way in and out. I would surmise that the hotel is within the territorial waters of the USA and hence Coast Guard regulations would require a holding tank and pump out capability for any human waste. That said there ARE systems that do process that kind of waste and comply with all the regs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
