Best places to snorkle in St. Lucia?

[Tazzycat]

We are looking for either a beach from which we can walk in and snorkle, -or- a place where we can take a tour boat (company names appreciated) to find a great place to snorkle. We love fishies and coral and reefs.

Thanks in advance.

We like Anse Cochon. You can get a day package from Ti Kaye Village that includes transportation, lunch, and all your gear. Perfect black sand beach and really good snorkeling on both sides of the bay. Looking out to sea from the beach the area to the right has larger fish and corals, to the left is an area called the nursery. I've heard that this side took a good hit from the last hurricane but should be recovering.

We snorkelled there last March and April and it was quite good....just as good as previous years.

 

Ti Kaye is a nice resort....with good food. CHeck their webside for their packages
