Best snorkelling in Southern Caribbean?

[Fenten]

We are sailing on Serenade in January and are trying to decide where we should book a snorkelling trip. We have already snorkelled in St. Thomas and Barbados, so that leaves St. Lucia, Antigua or St. Maarten. Can anyone give me a recommendation on the best snorkelling at any of those 3 islands? Also, is there a tour company you would suggest? Thanks.

Outstanding snorkeling in Curacao - but that wasn't on your list :rolleyes:

We're taking the same cruise on the Serenade (on Jan 14), so I'd like the know the answer to this question as well.

We loved St Martin. no jelly fish and clear water.

Actaully this isn't much help but the best snorkeling is not on the So Caribbean route, though it's my favorite itinerary. of those places mentioned I would give the nod to St Thomas or better when you get to St Thomas go over to St Johns. next would probably be Barbedos. We have snorkeled at St Martin, St Thomas and Barbados, we did not care for the snorkeling in St Maartin. This is just our opinion and everyone has her/his own. NMnita

In St. Maarten we snorkeled at Dawn Beach where we saw some fish we hadn't seen at other spots.

 

We are looking forward to snorkeling in Barbados on the Silver Moon in April.
