Child Snorkeling question---Scubagirl?

[In2why]

Hiya...thank you for all the great advice on your homeland. I have a question about snorkeling. We have a 4 year old son and since we live on the Bay in VA he swims better than most adults. When I checked on the Carnival excursion the minimum was 6. Do you know if younger children are allowed on any of the tours booked separately? We are getting him comfortable with the mask and breather in our pool since sadly even though the water is great here it isn't anything near clear. :( I looked at the glass bottom boats but judging from the pics they look like a bit of a waste of time.

I appreciate any help you can provide.

Don't know of any that cater to children that young. The age limit is mainly for insurance purposes..

 

Most tours are off the boat.. since the reefs around the beach are depleted and bleached.
