It's easy to hit the beaches snorkeling without a guide. The visibility is usually 70-100 feet...like pool water. Our favorite places include, Hawksnest, Trunk Bay, Cincinnamon Beach and Peter Bay. Peter Bay is only accessible by trail. Ask the wedding party if you are interested in snorkeling Peter Bay.
