Geoshar Posted November 4, 2007 #4 Share Posted November 4, 2007 We will be going there for the first time this month and we do plan to snorkel. I don't see any reason it wouldn't be a good place to try out snorkeling..even a pool is good for that.;) Perhaps this link will help?:) http://www.mycruiseadventures.com/day1.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay to the far left (looking from the ship). There is a place to rent gear and a nice little reef. The water is clear and plenty of fish. Have FUN!!

dmoherewego! Posted November 15, 2007 #8 Share Posted November 15, 2007 We absolutely LOVED our snorkle experience in Princess Cays! So many fish!! There is a small gazebo out over the water. Aim for there. Its close the the hut you rent the equipment. They feed the fish from that gazebo. Also keep it to yourself and try to be on one of the first tenders. The more people that show up, the fish do thin out some, but there will still be plenty to see. Unless you're strong swimmer, rent the life vest. Going out around the edge of that area is easy, your swimming along having a great time. When you turn around to go back, your fighting the current and it wears you out! I thought I would drown before my husband could reach the bottom. Take the little disposable underwater cameras with you. Theirs are very expensive.

cruisencarol Posted November 30, 2007 #9 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I also think Princess cay is a good snorkel. Usually decent visibility, little current, lots of fish. There is not a lot of coral and the water is cool, but it is better than coki beach in st Thomas or divi in St Marten IMO. I always look forward to snorkeling at Princess Cay.
