Thanks!
I haven't had the pleasure of snorkelling Eden Rock yet. I will havea to try that next time.. Thank you for posting about it!

But, last October, two other CLFers and I snorkeled Hamburger Reef on our own. It was fabulous, and the day cost us exactly NOTHING.
Except I did rent some fins for a very reasonable amount, since I hadn't wanted to pack mine.

We were probablly in the water for a couple of hours, and had an absolute ball!

There was no beach where we went in... just a little inlet surroundd by rocks, so entering anad exiting was a little tricky with the water rushing rapicly up through the little funnel created by the narrow channel between the rocks, but the three of us were fine.

I wouldn't suggest this area for anyone who is not a fairly self suffidient swimmer... the entry and exit knocked us off our feet a couple of times... there are no lifeguards there ... or anyone else , for that matter, but it WAS a great snorkel! One ofo the best I have done in a long while!

(Note -two of us are trained lifeguards, and one also an ex competitive swimmer, so we were equipped to take care of one another if the need arosse.)
