best beach and snorkle

[lthouseprincess]

we are on the disney magic in Nov. What would be the best beach and snorkle spot? We do not want to get on another boat so that rules out Buck island.

 

We want a beach that has chairs for rent and food close and pretty good snorkling ( we are new at it)

Look up Cane Bay... nice beach, good snorkeling close to shore, snorkel gear rentals available at dive shop across the street from the beach, chairs available, two restaurants/bars for food/drink/restrooms.

So if our group wanted to do something on our own ( beach and snorkel ) youd recommend Cane Bay??

golfer1966 - yes Cane Bay is a nice choice for beach and snorkeling. Also some of the beaches close to Frederiksted also are nice and some have snorkeling. You could also head to Buccaneer Resort, small entry fee, nice beach there called Mermaid and their other beach the Grotto has decent snorkeling.

Islander- How far a ride is it from the port to the buccaneer?

Thanks

Frederiksted to Buccaneer, 35-40 minutes one way.

We went to Cane Bay. The beach was nice, but the water was a bit rough that day. You could still snorkel but had to be careful where the water got shallow so current didnt push you into the rocks. Snorkeling was pretty good.
