Located to the east of
Florida in the Atlantic Ocean are the Bahamas. A nation made up of over
700 islands, the Bahamas, with their clear blue waters and white sand
beaches, have long been a tourist magnet. With a vast number of reefs
surrounding the islands of the Bahamas, snorkeling is an attraction that
many visitors enjoy. Experienced snorkelers will find what is regarded
as some of the best snorkeling in the world. There is easy off-shore
snorkeling from many of the beaches, and many hotels offers gear for
rental. Some particular Bahamas snorkeling attractions are worth taking
the time to seek out. For example, on the west side of Eleuthera a site
known as The Bahamas Current Cut is where the current creates a perfect
feeding spot for marine life, and a perfect show for snorkelers.
Another Bahamas snorkeling adventure is found at Walker’s Cay.
Sometimes referred to as “The Shark Rodeo,” this is a place where up to
200 sharks are regularly seen to gather. The sharks that are seen on
this snorkeling in Bahamas spot are not dangerous to humans, and
snorkelers can even dive down to interact with them. |
