Decameron Aquarium resort off the Colombian coast offers a quintessential West Indian experience for travelers seeking memorable vacations. The Aquarium's circular towers provide 360 degree views of the Caribbean Sea, where beach buffs, deep sea fishing fans, scuba divers, snorkeling aficionados and other adventurers will find their haven. The Aquarium's guests can use facilities at the island's four other Decameron resorts, reachable via complimentary shuttles. At this resort, ''all inclusive'' means daily snacks, breakfast and lunch buffets brimming with regional and international cuisines, unlimited domestic and imported beverages, daily activities and nightly shows, watersports, a scuba diving clinic and discotheque. The Aquarium also features three bars, pools for children and adults, travel agency and a meeting room for up to 130 guests. Dining options include the La Barracuda restaurant, El Patio Steak House, the Italian cuisine of Mama Leone and seafood at La Bruja. Fifteen three story buildings comprise the Colombian resort, which features 250 air conditioned guestrooms with satellite television, private bathrooms, refrigerators and ocean views. San Andres Island attracts global travelers, who can sway to reggae and salsa music until sunrise, browse lively shops or relax beside placid, azure waters. Like its sibling resorts, the Aquarium provides the perfect setting by the sea for quests looking to relax and get away from it all.

1) They have placed a sweet shop right in the middle of the aquarium, next to the theatre.

Andre Agassi has exploded the Agassi myth himself, a sports person who became a cult figure. Except Bjorn Borg no body enjoyed such rapturous fan-following. A doe-eyed global seducer. Blowing flying kisses and becoming folded hand to woo his followers. Along with Borg, enjoyed female following like no other sport-person ever did. From Andre Agassi, one of the most beloved athletes in the history and one of the most gifted men ever to step onto a tennis court, a beautiful, a candid autobiography. His unmatched charisma made him the most widely marketed player. He was not only a tennis player but a perfect showman both off and on court.
ABOUT ANDRE AGASSI:
