Send away to the ultimate seaside haven? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

deport

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'send away' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'the ultimate seaside haven?' is the wordplay.
'the ultimate seaside' becomes 'de' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'haven?' becomes 'port' (haven is a kind of port).
'de'+'port'='DEPORT'

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for deport that I've seen before include "Exile" , "Expel from country - not a citizen" , "Banish (undesirable alien?)" , "Expel as an undesirable alien" , "Send away, being de trop" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
