Explore the spectacular underwater gardens of one of the largest barrier reefs in the Americas, part of UNESCO’S Seaflower Biosphere Reserve. The water surrounding the island is known as the Sea of Seven Colors, and it lives up to its name, with truly spectacular hues of turquoise and blue protected by the 20-mile-long reef. A launch will take you around the coastline to Crab Cay, where the sea is calm with incredible visibility — an ideal location for beginners. Here National Parks staff will conduct a short briefing and supply you with any snorkeling equipment you may need. Then jump into the beautiful blue water for an outstanding snorkeling experience. If there’s time, you may choose to climb the rocky peak where the views are mesmerizing. Then return to the pier at Sana Isabel where you can continue on to the ship or explore the small town on your own.
