Snorkel the crystal-clear waters off Grand Bahama and enjoy a close-up view of the diverse marine life that inhabits the coral reefs. After a relatively short boat ride, you will reach a reef that the captain has chosen after considering the weather and water conditions. The boat will moor there rather than drop anchor, which could damage the fragile ecosystem. You will then ease into the water and behold the wonders that lie just below the surface. There is no telling what you will see, but you can be sure it will be plentiful as the visibility is often up to 200 feet. You may observe neon-colored parrotfish, blue angelfish, black groupers and horse-eye jacks. Be sure to scan the ocean floor for spiny lobsters, hermit crabs and large sea snails known as Triton’s trumpets. If you spot a leatherback sea turtle, it will be a showstopper, as these graceful creatures weigh up to 1,300 pounds.


HIGHLIGHTS
• Cruise to a coral reef not far offshore that is ideal for snorkeling.
