back to the islands Posted June 22, 2009 #1 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I'm thinking of doing the Barrier Reef snorkel with Carnival which I think is near Rum Point or just going up to Cemetary Beach to snorkel, stopping by Sea Grape on the way back. Any thoughts or help? I'm into snorkeling and beaches, but don't really want to do the rays. I've read Eden Rock is good, too, but would prefer a beach with my snorkeling, if it's still good.Thanks!

LizzieTrowbridge Posted June 22, 2009 #2 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I was at Sea Grape Beach in March and there was not very good snorkeling. I think many of the reefs along that beach have been damaged. We floated around just off shore and saw a few fish, but the ocean was all churned up that day so it was hard to see anything.

jean-lynd Posted June 23, 2009 #3 Share Posted June 23, 2009 It would definitely be cheaper to do Cemetery Beach and it is a beautiful uncrowded beach with very good snorkeling. You do have to swim out a ways to get to the reef but we thought it was worth it. We didn't have snorkel vests so we took some small blowup rafts from the dollar store and took turns resting on them when we got tired. There are no facilities there but Sea Grape is not very far down the beach. I hope this helps! Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scuba214 Posted June 27, 2009 #4 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Can you walk from Cemetery to Sea Grape? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginoboy Posted June 29, 2009 #5 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Thanks for the info. Think we'll try Cemetary Beach. Can we rent snorkeling gear there or do we need to bring it from home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
back to the islands Posted July 2, 2009 Author #6 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Ginoboy, I haven't been there yet, but from what I have gathered there is nothing at Cemetary Beach, not even bathrooms. You might be able to rent from Eden Rock and take it there or maybe even at Sea Grape. Anyone????? I'm bringing my own! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
