Snorkeling - from the beach?
 

We are planning a trip to the Carribean in June or July 1999 with one of the major requirements being good snorkeling with access from the beach. Any suggestions and recommendations? Please be specific about the location you're talking about. Thanks.

Good question -here's my current list of favorites in no particular order: <BR>Hawksnest in Antigua <BR>Caneel Bay in St. John <BR>Little Dix Bay in Virgin Gorda <BR>Presidente in Cozumel <BR>Sapphire Beach in St. Thomas <BR>All of these hotels have excellent snorkeling at their beaches.

Have heard very good things about the snorkeling off the beach at Anse Chastanet, St. Lucia -- check out <BR>http://www.ansechastanet.com/ <BR>and <BR>http://www.caribtravelnews.com/c0996_05.htm#stllynn <BR>and <BR>http://wwte.com/windies/stlucia/villa30.htm <BR>and <BR>http://www.caribtravelnews.com/c0598_04.htm#stltony <BR> <BR> <BR>

<BR>Best from shore snorkeling I've ever seen is on Bonaire. You can walk in anywhere and it's great. No need to use a boat unless you want to go to Klein Bonaire. <BR> <BR>Right at the hotels, any of them, is great snorkeling.
