We were on the Marina cruise where the one passenger was lost. Very sad as we were on the shuttle and heard the news. Looking at the water near Fare, it didn't look too bad. But we were on the motu near Tahaa the previous day when another man was pulled from the water...a near drowning. Thankfully he survived and we were warned by another passenger that the currents were quite strong.
It looked peaceful but almost took my legs out from under me. Based on that experience, were were quite cautious in Huahine and snorkelled near Chez Tara on Huahine Iti.
In Bora Bora, we went with Pure Snorkeling by Reef Discoveries. I cannot say enough about that company....they were knowledgeable, and very safety conscious. Small group, highly organized, head counts and attention to those not comfortable in the water, as well as amazing snorkeling.

Cheers, thank you.

Thanks for the informative posts. Can anyone advise if a bottle can be purchased in a lounge and 'corked' for another evening's visit to that lounge? Or taken from the dining room to a lounge?
Thank you

My wife and I were in Cozumel and Grand Cayman in January, second time in both ports. We’ve never felt unsafe in either port, doing beach excursions in both.
Jamaica, I can’t comment, other than by reputation. I agree with some of the other posters - consider a ship excursion if you’re concerned. I would hope you would have no issue with the tour operators and would hope you would have some allies with your other shipmates.
And, I as well have struggled with spending vacation dollars in a country where we feel unwelcome by a government and by so many of the poplulace...but we are cruising out of the USA anyway
