"Scuba diving is awesome. I
would recommend Dennis and MDEA to anyone who wants to
learn to scuba dive. They are experts and teach hands on
how to scuba dive. Scuba is one of the exhilarating
sports I have ever tried. I can't wait for the "08 trip
to Saba led by Neptune Diving and Ski!"

August 2008 - Saba Scuba Trip - The Scuba Experience of
a Lifetime... Saba is ideal for the traveler
looking for a secluded haven, in peaceful and friendly
surroundings. Rising steeply from the azure sea, the
tiny island in the Caribbean is a magical experience far
away from the cares and worries of today's hurried
world. Visitors feel they have stepped back in history,
yet many modern luxuries are here to be enjoyed. Saba is
a monument to nature's best above and below the ocean's
surface. Like all gems, Saba's demeanor belies her
birth: violent geophysical upheavals were her
attendants. Eons later, her emerald forests, punctuated
by the ruby roofs of her trim cottages, are ringed by
her sapphire blue seas.

quaint mountain restaurants dispersed among hundreds of

Hotel
– Our four star, ski-in ski-out hotel is “Hotel LaVilla,”
is like a fairy tale. Our 1985 ski group was the first

included at the hotel.

Trip
Description – The Super Dolimiti is the largest
interconnected ski area in the world! It has more than
460 modern ski lifts. That is over 100 lifts larger than
all the resorts in Colorado and Utah combined! You can
ski mountain to mountain and village to village on miles
of well groomed and well marked trails. Our hotel is
located in the Alta Badia, which is in the heart of this
magnificent ski area. Entry level skiers can spend all
day in the Alta Badia on dozens of interconnected gentle
runs including the 5 ˝ mile run from Pralongia down to
the town of Armentarola, where a shuttle bus is taken to
the top of Falzarego Pass. There, a cable car takes you
up another 2000 vertical feet to the top of Mt. Lagazuo
from which you ski down over 4000 vertical feet to
Scutetoni for an Italian barbecue. From there, you can
ski a short distance where a horse drawn sleigh pulls
you back to where you can finally ski back to your
hotel. Intermediates can also enjoy Sellaronda, a ski
trip where you follow the signs and ski all the way
around the Sella Mt. Group and then back to the hotel.
It involves 16 lifts, 5 villages, 4 mountain passes and
28 miles of unbelievable views and interesting sights.
For the Advanced and Expert skiers with a lot of
endurance, Dennis will take you to ski Marmalada, the
glacier. This involves 27 lifts, 4 villages and 53 miles
of distance on skis and lifts. After reaching the town
of Malga Ciapela, you ride 3 cable cars and one elevator
to “the top of the world,” you ski down 6000 vertical
ft. and then back to our village! This ski area is
absolutely as good as skiing gets and can be enjoyed by
all ability levels.
Other
diversions include tons of shopping, the nearby village
of Cortina, site of the 1956 Winter Olympics and
shooting location of “For Your Eyes Only.” Venice is
close enough for a day trip and may be worth taking a
day off from skiing to see.
Cataloochee February 22nd - 24th, $295 or $330 w/rentals
Cataloochee is in scenic Maggie Valley but worlds away
from crowds. Cataloochee's slopes offer a 740ft vertical
drop.
Trip cost of $295 w/o rentals from Neptune includes dbl
occupancy, transportation and lift tickets. What a
VALUE. Call 615-356-5051 to sign up or come in to
Neptune and sign up!
