Snorkel In Coca Cay?

[nreilly]

Is there a decent place to snorkel on this island? If you have your own equipment are there any charges? Thanks for the help.

Greetings!

 

In my opinion, Coco Cay is a fantastic place to snorkel. If you bring your own equipment, you only need to rent a snorkel vest from Royal Caribbean ($6 last time I was there). RC has an area set up specifically for snorkeling. This area has three key attractions - a "sunken pirate ship" (kinda disappointing), 2 sunken planes (one real plane crash, one placed by the cruise line), and a deep water area. During my time there, saw numerous fish, quite a few rays, and even a shark in the deep water area. The water is generally pretty clear, but this depends a bit on the weather. Bring an underwater camera!
