How is the snorkeling at PSV? How does it compare to St. John? Is the water clear and calm with sandy bottoms?<BR><BR>PSV sounds wonderful and pristine.<BR><BR>Thanks for your help.<BR><BR>

coral and rocky everywhere. found fair snorkeling but trip to Tabago Cays is the best there.

I found the PSV snorkelling pretty dim but agree fully with previous poster that you can (and should) get to the Tobago Keys very easily from PSV. Snorkelling in the Keys is outstanding.

Thanks for the info. I'm trying to make some decisions for next year's vacation. I am planning one week in Anguilla, where I understand the water is gorgeous, but the snorkeling is not the best. For the second week I want good snorkeling, so I may return to St, John.<BR><BR>Your input is most appreciated.<BR>

Diane<BR>We have been to all 3 places you are considering.<BR>PSV is a beautiful place. Very private and romantic. The snorkling is great, especially at the Tobago Cays. The advantage at PSV is you can go right off the beach (except the Tobago Cays--require a boat trip). The "but" is that PSV is hard to get to.<BR><BR>Anguilla has outstanding beaches but snorkling not so good. Fantastic resorts, restaurants, and beaches.<BR><BR>BVIs have great snorkling sites but you will need a boat to get to most of the "hot spots" (the Baths, the Caves, the Pelicans, the Rhone, etc.)<BR><BR>All 3 places mentioned are very different one from the other. There are pros and cons. I have listed a few. <BR>
