Snorkeling & Diving

 

I first became a certified diver at age 16.  That was seventeen LONG years ago. Since that time then I have enjoyed diving around the world in such places as Fiji, Tonga, South Africa (with Great Whites), The Keys, St. Croix, Hawaii, about 8 of the Bahama Islands, and Culebra.

I can honestly tell you that the diving around Culebra is not the best in the Caribbean.  It's good but it is not the best.  My feeling is that when it comes to diving then you want deeper waters.  Culebra is not known for deeper waters.  Nearly all of the dive sites around the island are no more then 40 feet deep.  And the best reef life is found in the shallower waters.  So whenever I go to Culebra then I snorkel.  And I snorkel a lot!  Nearly every day I have ever spent in Culebra then I have hit the water at least once.  I feel fairly confident in saying that I know the waters their probably better then most of the long time island residents.
  • The shallower waters off the southwest shores of Culebra offer some of the best snorkeling you will find anywhere.
  • President Theodore Roosevelt wisely established this part of Culebra as a National Wildlife Reserve in 1908.
  • Since that time then this area has been able to prosper.
  • You will find turtles, rays, octopus, parrotfish, numerous smaller fish, and super healthy reefs.
  • You can also dive these areas but I just prefer snorkeling since the waters are typically less then 20' deep.
