This is one of my favorite islands. For an absolutely awesome snorkel, do the Champagne Reef snorkel. It is best to do this snorkel from a boat, the beach is not a beach as we know it. There are big rocks and lots of them. You snorkel over a volcano vent, and the bubbles in the water make it seem like you are in a glass of champagne. You can actually feel the change in temperature in the water. There is an abundance of sea life, fish, squid, lobsters, etc. The falls (I think the name was Trafalga falls)and emerald pool are a beautiful tour as well. The island is unspoiled (at least for now) and offers beautiful scenery. If you do an island tour, the roads are narrow, so just look at the scenery, the cab drivers are amazing. There is shopping close to where the ship docks.
