HannaBelle Posted October 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Anyone have experience snorkeling from the beach? Hubby and I will bring our own gear, but we are debating just snorkeling for the beach vs the Labadee Snorkel Safari - QLB2. I would like to rent the 2 person lounger if we don't do the Snorkel Safari. What I don't want is to be herded in a big group of people while trying to snorkel.

firstsgtsteiner Posted October 26, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 26, 2017 We are on the same cruise as you guys, have done Labadee several times in the past, from the beach there is not a whole lot snorkel wise, if you get out a bit towards the rocks it does get somewhat better. Also they supposedly dropped reef balls in earlier this year for better wave control and better snorkeling in the bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverCruiseReporter Posted November 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 20, 2017 OK, so there's no where within walking distance to go snorkeling...you need a boat to find a reef? I have my own gear as well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannaBelle Posted November 20, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted November 20, 2017 We ended up doing the speed boat snorkel and really enjoyed it. The reef was beautiful but the water was so shallow in spots we had to avoid touching the reef. We did NOT like Labadee. It was shabby, the food was terrible, the "artists" were way too aggressive and the lunch buffet was sub-par. I am sorry we decided to walk around after the snorkel tour.
