Blake deep

The land sims in the Blake sea are wonderful, But it's under the sea, where the real magic is. If your a merfolk or a deep sea diver, this is a must to check out.



There are many things to see underwater. As you explore, you will see often see a map. This map will give you tp's to the under water sites. I won't talk about all the tp spots. I don't want to spoil the experience.



One of the best land sims is Flotsam. Underneath is even better. Here there are ruins and caves. There is also a glass under water room where non sea creatures can view the underwater world. Remember merfolk, don't tap on the glass. It scares the humans. Also here you can find the most magical underwater cave. Be sure to check out my review of  above ground Flotsam.



In Blake Roatan is an adorable underwater farm. The tuna fish are the cutest. This area is heavy with pirates, sea battles and battle training. So those under the sea, may need to take care.

The Hippodrome is located in Blake cove. It is a beautiful race arena. Looks like something you would find in ancient Rome.

In union passage you can find and underwater mer sandbox, mer mall and most especially is safe waters. I created a post for safe waters, you can read it here.



Fanci Deep is home to many merfolk and sea creatures. It's a residential community that has some of the best homes a mermaid could love. During Halloween most of residents decorated and they featured an amazing home tour. I can't wait to see what is done during Yule/Christmas


Above the water in Fanci Deep SW is Barnacle Bob's bait shop. Here you can fish (7 seas fishing) ride a dolphin, and even ride a fishy submarine. This is also a perfect place for the land lubbers to dive into the Blake deeps



Of course there are many wrecks and caves to check out through out the Blake deep. I have left out quite a bit, so don't hesitate to come and check it out

Flotsam

Oddly, it was the SL coastguard that led me here. They have a big map of Blake sea there, and on this section is a big pirate symbol. So of course I had to come here as soon as possible.


The sim is like a pirate theme park, I love it! The description says spend a couple hours. I spent two days and that didn't seem like enough.


After I arrived, I carefully hide my umbrella boat. You can't be too careful, especially around pirates. I wasn't sure what to expect. But I found a typical pirate town. There are plenty of stores to gather supplies. (the stores are just for show, nothing to purchase) You can also find a Chinese laundry, an inn, tattoo parlor, bank, courthouse and of course a pub.



One thing that Flotsam offers is underwater tours. I jumped at the chance. The tour was over all very nice. But some how we ran a ground. Thankfully no one was hurt. I ended up in some place called Taurus Passage. The only one on this island was an old man, who told me all about the mermaids, that live near by. I am not sure as I believe him. But I will be checking that out soon.

Another amazing attraction is called Cap'n Nemo's underwater attraction. This is like a maze of underwater rooms. These rooms are a steampunk scientist's dream.



There is even a underwater treasure hunt. So be sure to have a diving suit ready. It took awhile to get to the first ship wreck, so be patient and don't give up.

Overall these sims are loads of fun. It's a great place to come with a group to have a day of fun. Or just by yourself.

The kind of sim:
pirate, sailing,  diving, merfolking, amusement park,

How to dress for this sim:
Like a pirate! I saw people dressing in modern wear and did not see any rules about dress code.

Storyline, rp, background:
I don't know of any on going rp's or storylines going on here. But it is a great setting for a small pirate story/pictures. Also amusement park story/pictures would work too.

What to do:
explore the nautilus, take an underwater tour in a luxurious submarine, explore Cap'n Nemo's underwater adventure, do an underwater treasure hunt,

Who will love it:
Pirates, mermaids, sailors, divers, explorers and people who just like to have fun
