At any number of beaches on the north shore of St. John, USVI.
They are all within the National Park/no development. The photo on the first page of this (Fodors) Caribbean blog is of Trunk Bay Beach on St.John, which has a snorkeling trail around the tiny island just offshore. This is probably the most photograped beach in the world.

St John's USVI best beaches snorkeling off the beach...
http://www.vrbo.com/vacation-rentals...n/usvi-st-john
rental options more affordable..
Cheap flight connections in from the US for me
especially on www.spiritair.com out of FLL.
Other good options like Bonaire Roatan
www.anthonyskey.com www.seagraperoatan.com
based on budget... Happy Journey

Bob- since you asked about Culebra, look at Villa Boheme- a little inn in town that is very reasonable. You would want a jeep to really explore (try Carlos Jeeps)- www.islaculebra.com (I think, didn't look back to refresh my memory) is a good site to do research on- happy travels!

North Side or East End of Grand Cayman. A few resorts, but mostly private homes or small condo complexes. Deserted beaches surrounded by barrier reef with killer snorkeling in between.

Yes, St John has some of the best snorkeling from shore anywhere. Don't be put off by the Caneel rates since this is the absolute high-end on STJ (other than some villas). At $850 - 2400 per night, you can spend a week on STJ for what you'd pay for a night at Caneel.
You can get some pretty nice digs for under $200/nt.
Sail View @ $150 http://www.sailviewstjohn.com/
Cruiz Views @ $125-225 http://www.caribbeanvilla.com/cviews...views.html#cv7
Maho Bay EcoResort @ $80 - 185 http://www.maho.org/
and more if you look closely
