Goofystan, if you do a search for Epcot & Living Seas on this board, you'll find info from guys who've actually been. I haven't done it yet.
And, if you do a search on the web for it, you'll find whole pages (with photos) devoted to it.
You dive in the Living Seas "reef tank" at Disney's Epcot.
You arrive at a special entrance and get carted backstage instead of walking through the park.
It's pricey - ($150 if I remember correctly), so people don't do it regularly.
But everyone who HAS done it says they enjoyed it & would recommend it.
You have to call disney reservations and book it with a credit card.
Someone said they'll let you go in small groups, so I was mentioning that we were going to see if any SBers wanted to form a group.
We're doing the latter of the two dives that day in order to get a little more dive time in vs. being rushed out for the next group. I think our dive's at 5:30pm or so.
Gotta go back and check our reservations. All I know for SURE is that I booked the "last" dive of the day.
Off the top of my head - hrmmm... what else do I remember people said?
Crystal clear water, probably around 20' deep, chilly water in the 70's.
They don't let you bring your own gear of any kind.
They provide the wetsuits and all gear.
Takes about 3 hours (45min in water).
You get a backstage briefing by their divers/biologists before-hand.
Then the dive.
Since you're IN the exhibit, you can go over to the glass and wave to the visitors while they take pictures of you.
Then a shower and thaw out watching a video of your dive and you get refreshments.
(I think you get your dive log stamped and a t-shirt. you have to pay $$ to buy the video)
It's a "pristine"-looking reef environment with TONS of every fish imaginable.
Turtles, rays, eels, and sharks.
Originally, I think they just had some nurse sharks, but more recently have been adding in a handful of other large species (like the gnarly looking saw tooth).
mail me if you're serious and we'll talk.
I can look up the info again if you can't find it.
