Snorkel Tour

Friars Bay Beach, St Kitts

by Dave Jackson

Though the atmosphere on the southern end of Friars Bay is usually pretty lively, families will still find plenty of space to relax, while the water offshore is safe and warm year-round. Surfers and those looking for a more windswept beach experience will want to visit the north end of Friars Bay where the rockier shore meets the majestic Atlantic Ocean. The turn off to Friars Bay is found on the left, 2km north of Marigot on the road heading towards Grand Case. The bay is sheltered with a pleasant beach. Sunshine’s has good food, reasonable prices and a festive but relaxed atmosphere which attracts a mix of cruisers, locals and tourists. We met some interesting folks, including the owner and crew of a newly launched “First Rule Twelve” boat (design circa 1909) named Kate.

Most Hawaii snorkeling is done in relatively shallow water, near the shore. Therefore, tidal periods have a much greater impact on visibility and currents. You may encounter dolphins, turtles and of course hundreds of species of colorful tropical fish on the many Hawaii snorkeling adventures available. The Hawaii snorkeling information contained within these pages is meant only as a general guide as to what to expect when visiting the Hawaiian Islands. As beautiful and mild as Hawaii usually is, weather is always unpredictable.
