After a
long Winter and rainy Spring, we all feel like going out on the streets as soon
as the first rays of sunshine appear while craving for those long hot summer
days. As temperatures soar there is nothing better than being surrounded by the
refreshing sea water. Therefore, it’s time to say goodbye to the couch and
start taking advantage of the energizing sun and of Second life’s excellent
conditions for the practice of Water Sports.
Before
bathing season started the SLE has sent its team of experts into the field to
examine the water quality and beaches conditions and facilities. What comes
next is the result of that thorough examination.
Here you will find some information
on the various Water Sports available on four outstanding regions awarded with
the SLE's blue flag.
Roddenberry Dive Team Scuba at the Star Trek Museum
Although it is located in a region that hosts one of the most famous
science fiction museums, you don’t have to be a Trekkie to fully enjoy this
piece of natural beauty rich in sea life during the practise of the two main
activities that have steadily grown in popularity over the last decades: scuba diving & whale watching.
Grab your free Scuba Diver Outfit
available onsite and pop on the tour that will lead you through the exciting
underwater world: swim among the fishes and the various species; be conquered
by the astounding richness of the colorful coral reefs known as the rainforests
of the sea; swim with George and Gracie, the whales from Star Trek IV; the
pirates’ shipwrecks will give you hopes of finding a hidden treasure on the
seabed.
But like anywhere else, danger is
also around the corner here, making this tour a more adventurous journey. You
are now under the eye of Bird of Prey, the legendary man-eating bird that rests
above water in its hunting pose. Also be aware of the venomous sea snake that,
although is shy and usually quiet, it will be ready to bite you when feeling
threatened by your presence.
Back on the ground you will find
souvenirs and further information on the Roddenberry Dive Team.
This is definitely a place to visit
and explore for those who like to have their feet off the ground.
HAWAII - TROPICAL ISLAND PARADISE -
Hawaiian Fantasy - Aloha!
Aloha! Welcome to the Water Sports paradise. The Hawaii region consists
of a cluster of islands networked
by lagoons and backwaters and by narrow wooden bridges. Water is the main
element to explore with a big variety of sports and activities available to
all.
While traversing the walkway to the
beach your eyes will set on a beautiful light Blue Ocean with one of the
prettiest shores ever seen. As you reach the beach you will find all the
necessary props and facilities for spending the day in the warm waters of this
tropical island.
Some of the recreational Water
Sports available here are Jet Skiing, canoeing, sailing, swimming, fishing,
wakeboarding, catamaran with sails, surfing, windsurfing, whale riding, wave
jumping. Additionally, you can ride the dolphins and seals or explore the ocean
in a small submarine while watching the whales, the octopus and the manta ray.
After a long and intense day of
sports, you can enjoy the beautiful moonlight while dancing under the clear
stars or sip an exotic drink in one of the campfires located on the sand.
IMZADI RESORT - FREE SCUBA DIVING AND WHALE
WATCHING!!!
When we arrive at Imzadi Resort a
wide open beach to relax and enjoy the sun awaits us. Still with your feet on
the ground you can observe the clear waters and have your first insight of sea
life as the whales and seals natural habitat is not far from the beach. With a
little luck even a baby orca and its mother will show right in front of your
eyes.
Grab your free Scuba Diver Outfit near the pontoon and take advantage of
the diving tour available to offer yourself a romantic midnight dive and be
enchanted by the light emitted by sea life, pure natural fireworks.
On the south side of the island
there are free-to-use canoes and many opportunities to swim in the open waters
across the region. To make sure you will not drown the necessary props have
been set up for your enjoyment. If you prefer calmer waters, Imzadi Resort is
also prepared for that. Visitors can float in a big pool with an integrated
bar, spend some time in a whirlpool or use the resort’s sauna with attached
swimming pool.
It is a great getaway for beach and
Water Sports lovers.
Oniro - Romantic Land of Dreams
When the sun is setting and you feel like combining Water Sports and a
romantic environment, “Oniro - Romantic Land of Dreams" is the perfect
place to be!
An artistically crafted gondola will take you on a tour through canals,
lakes and the most beautiful cave you have ever seen. After this first
impression of the region, explore the colourful nature yourself by Jet Ski or
surfboard, float quietly in the water or watch the peaceful whales and fall in
love with these islands and with what the ocean around them has to offer.
A special hint for you is to search for a ship wreck in the ocean: dive
into the sea right next to it and explore a wonderful underwater world, full of
sea animals, plants and vibrant colours. Magically, you will not need any scuba
diver outfit to breathe in these waters, so you can extend your stay in the sub
aquatic giving you the unique opportunity to be romantic above and under water
and dance to the rhythm of the sea.
Happy Summer!
