Bad weather canceled our plans to sail out to the reefs offshore, so I rented snorkel equipment from Dive Provo. Even though the water was kind of choppy from the weather the first day, the water remained fairly clear and I was able to see lots of fish - green parrotfish and several other species. Don't try it without flippers, especially if the water is choppy at all. The second day was a bust, as the weather had finally stirred up the sediment and cut visibility even on a sunny day.
Not sure what happened... We read the reviews. We have 2 very hesitant snorkelers for daughters and from the reviews we thought it would be perfect for them. The visibility was awful the current was very strong, the beach was overcrowded and the facilities were non existent ! Do not waste your time unless we were there at a terrible time- February 16th 10 am? Completely a waste of time and effort!!!!
This is a blast. Offers a local fare, great food, a break from the high prices, and a party atmosphere.
Great for snorkeling, especially if your a beginner like myself. Very easy to get to and just walk in off the beach so anyone that's not a great swimmer would enjoy this! Lots of fish and beach was beautiful too!
We loved that you could snorkel right off the beach. We saw yellow snappers, lion fish, flounder and trumpet fish. Coral was beautiful.
I was here on a windy day, yet managed to snorkel several hundred yards from shore. Hard to find in the AM being there isn't a lot of snorkelers or signs. This was much more alive the Coral gardens, with a bunch of great fish/coral/ etc. to see. Had a great experience except for drinking a few waves along the way. I want to go back and explore it more being its more than 1 reef.
Just down the beach from Beaches. Lots of cool terrain. Home to at least a few sea turtles. Barracudas galore. Some tropical fish. Worth the walk!
It is on grace beach, best place for snorkeling, just be careful around robes in the water as you get sting from it with blisters on the skin.
This is a relatively small reef, which is very close to shore and protected by rope buoys. It is perfect for the novice snorkeler to view the colorful fish, aquatic life and coral.
Great place to snorkel and horseback ride. Can be a bit choppy to easily snorkel, at least when we were there. But saw a lot of fish, corals and just a short distance off the beach. Would definitely go there on our next visit!
