Top 10 Reasons To Visit The Florida Keys Pavilion At DEMA


Attending DEMA next week? Here are the top 10 reasons to visit the Florida Keys pavilion (#1166-1175).

  1. Enter to win a weeklong dive trip to the Keys during the "Drive and Dive" giveaway held during the show. The prize for two includes dive charters in each Keys region, accommodations, a rental car to use for one week to travel the Florida Keys Overseas Highway and a full set of ScubaPro dive equipment.

  2. The first 500 DEMA attendees who register for "Drive and Dive" are to receive a collector's lapel pin featuring artist David Harrison Wright's interpretation of the Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg after the 524-foot military ship is scuttled off Key West as an artificial reef. That sinking is planned for spring 2008 and pictures showing the project's progress are to be displayed at DEMA.

  3. Underwater photographer Stephen Frink is to autograph a new 2008 Florida Keys pictorial calendar in the Keys pavilion at 1 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 31, and Thursday, Nov. 1. The calendars, produced in conjunction with "Scuba Diving Magazine," are complimentary to DEMA badgeholders during the show while supplies last.

  4. You might win a trip to dive on a 1622 Spanish galleon shipwreck site. Register for a chance to win an archaeological treasure dive trip for two to the working Santa Margarita site during the 2008 salvage season with Blue Water Ventures of Key West. The prize includes accommodations for three nights at the Doubletree Grand Key Resort in Key West.

  5. Visit with Upper Florida Keys dive operators including representatives of Amy Slate's Amoray Dive Resort, Florida Keys Dive Center, Horizon Divers, Island Ventures, Quiescence Diving Services, Scuba-Do Diving Charters and Silent World Dive Center.

  6. Meet with representatives of Marathon's Captain Hook's Marina & Dive Center.

  7. Learn more about dive options in Key West from owners of Dive Key West and Subtropic Dive Center.

  8. Garner details on the History of Diving Museum in Islamorada and get more information on the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary from The Sanctuary Friends of the Florida Keys.

  9. Meet with representatives of the Florida Keys & Key West tourism office.

  10. And last, but perhaps most important, the Florida Keys are the most popular destination in the world for dive travelers, according to several different media sources.
