Marine Adventures and Tropical Vacations

There is something magical about entering the underwater world to explore and discover the infinite colors and nuances of submarine communities. On our trek to discover the best gone snorkeling vacations in the world, we soon discovered that not all coasts are equal. Water clarity, ocean depth and the strength of currents greatly affect the visibility, coral reef colors, and the kinds of fish and marine life inhabiting an area.

Underwater Photography

If you're someone who likes to share your experiences with friends and family, there's good news for budding underwater photographers. The ease of digital cameras and simple housings have made underwater photography accessible to everyone making it easy to share your best gone snorkeling vacations when you get home. Jacques Cousteau made underwater photography an art form, pushing technology to keep up with his passion, so I guess we have him to thank for all the great tools we can choose from now.
