Snorkeling
The snorkel sites that we visit are Creole Rock, Turtle Reef and Anse Marcel Point.
Creole Rock is part of the nature reserve on the French Side and here you can see Eagle Rays, Turtles, Barracudas, huge Sting Rays, as well as an abundance of marine life. The large rock is called Creole Rock because it looks like a creole man lying on his back. (You have to see it from a certain angle!). It is a sheltered site providing calm water in almost all weather conditions. Ranging in depth from about 4 feet to about 30 feet the life here is amazing. In the months of December to April we sometimes get visiting dolphins as well.
Turtle Reef, so named because we get Hawksbill and Green Turtles there, is a circular reef that lies just below the surface of the water on the other side of Grand Case Bay. We see turtles here almost daily, as well as Eagle Rays, Sting Rays, huge Porcupine Fish and lots of large schools of Snapper fish as well.
Anse Marcel Point is located just in front of Anse Marcel and had a wonderful display of both hard and soft corals. The reef is around a large rock that juts out of the water. Here we often see large barracuda feeding on small fish fry hiding in the canyons that the waves have carved out of the rock.
All sites are just a 3 minute boat ride away, making for a fast and comfortable journey and more time in the water. We stay at each site for about one hour to one hour and a half, and our guests can get in and out of the water as they like. We choose the best sites for the day, depending on waves and wind conditions.
Our shaded boats always stay at the snorkel site the whole time you are there and we provide complimentary fruit and water on each trip.
We have two trips a day, one leaves at 8 AM and the other at 1 PM. Each trip is about three to three and a half hours.
