![]() Hello!
I'm going to the Caribbean in February, and as it will be my first time, I'll be no doubt spending most of my time under water. Curious from everyone's experience, what part of the caribbean has the best reefs and fish life? From my understanding, a lot of the reefs in the Caribbean have been damaged. All the snorkeling videos I've found on the Caribbean have been pretty disappointing. Thanks! |

![]() I think a lot of the Caribbean reefs are in major trouble due to over-fishing, pollution & warming waters (i.e. climate change).
Here's an article on the issue: (80% loss) http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2013/aug/01/caribbean-coral-reef-loss |

![]() Cozumel has very nice reefs and lots of fish.
Bonaire is also nice and diving is easy because the reefs are so close to shore and a boat is not needed. Shore diving is the way to go. Snorkeling is also very good. |
