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.
