Roatan Snorkling after Excusion

[Dcorbinx3]

Hi Everyone, My husband and my 17 yr old son are sailing NCL in April and have booked the dolphin snorkel and swim at Anthony's Key Resort.  I am wondering if there is somewhere close to the resort or close to the ship that we could go snorkeling afterwards on our own?  I think we will have time as our excursion is at 10:15 and says it lasts for 3.5 hours. Ship leaves at 6pm. Any suggestions would be much appreciated as I have heard the snorkeling in Roatan is really good!  Since we will be on our own we would also need to rent snorkel gear somewhere or bring our own. Anyone know how much it is to rent gear (if you can). Trying to decide if it would be in our best interest to buy our own or not. Thank you!!

There are a number of threads on snorkeling in West End in Roatan on the Roatan forum. Apparently the West End beach is the place to go. Never been to Roatan , (going in Dec) just know what I've read.
