Comments Excellent shore diving included in room rates. NorthStar wall plunges almost vertically from 30' into the deep. Resort on a point with constant surf action = very relaxing. Owner Kevin has a relief map of the shore diving sites and gives very detailed briefings. He even told us exactly where to find a seahorse at Fredricksburg pier for an excellent night shore dive. Great place to go for a relaxed pace diving on your own schedule. Fun for new divers with lots to see and mild currents and great for experienced divers on a budget. On site restaurant is pricey but has excellent food and on the water atmosphere. Nearby restaurants also excellent. The "villa" has kitchen and is separate from rest of resort with a private deck over the waves. Boat dives available nearby. Rent a car.
