And they told us that too which I concurdon't want to screw stuff up

but from one's perspective the swells of the water are constantly moving you a couple feet to and from those underwater objects so you kinda have to think ahead not to get into too shallow an area and then the swell subsides bringing you in contact with that stuff.

Rats. Snorkeling wx is 2’ chop and maybe 20’ visability. No go. -- PhotoHokieNC 05/18/2021 08:33AM

Rent a moped and take a drive around the island... -- kjhokie 05/18/2021 12:16PM

I had to do a JAG investigation on a moped accident when I was down there -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 4:04PM

Drink heavily ** -- B777Fr8Dog 05/18/2021 12:01PM

Do a jet ski tour around the island -- MAHokie69 05/18/2021 11:57AM

That stinks. I saw stingrays while snorkeling, not rats. ** -- Chris Coleman

We swam with, actually hugged and kissed southern rays -- PhotoHokieNC 05/18/2021 11:55AM

I tinkled in the ocean last season btw ** -- HokieDan95 05/18/2021 11:10AM

That stinks! Glad you got a refund -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 10:38AM

Sorry to hear that. The winds can still churn up the bottom this time of -- NokieHokie 05/18/2021 10:30AM

Guess all you can do is start the drinking early! ** -- Nova Hokie 95 05/18/2021 10:14AM

Rats snorkeling? -- JoesterVT 05/18/2021 09:08AM

That's a bummer. I wondered what snorkeling was like in KW. -- No Clue 05/18/2021 08:43AM

Much of the reef diving there is done between the surface and 30' -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 10:41AM

I liked diving in that range. You can dive pretty much as long as your air -- No Clue 05/18/2021 11:55AM

If you really want to see colors, try diving the same area at night -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 12:43PM

We did a few night dives on that trip. You see a lot of stuff at night that -- No Clue 05/18/2021 1:19PM

I went out for the first time for the opening of lobster season -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 4:16PM

The have three destinations and each is an hour out and and an hour back. -- PhotoHokieNC 05/18/2021 08:47AM

Awesome, I hope the seas calm a bit ** -- No Clue 05/18/2021 08:53AM

Not this week. Today’s the best day. Next trip! ** -- PhotoHokieNC 05/18/2021 08:59AM

The sea was angry that week my friends** -- `lag 05/18/2021 10:01AM

Back in the day ('77), I was in the VT scuba club -- No Clue 05/18/2021 09:35AM

Wow, can't imagine the pain he was in... -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 10:43AM

Snorkeled Pennekamp years ago, scraped some coral stung a bit -- `lag 05/18/2021 10:37AM

On our first dive, my dive buddy promptly ran into a piece of staghorn -- No Clue 05/18/2021 10:54AM

Mean looking suckers to be sure but the only thing we were warned -- `lag 05/18/2021 10:59AM

Probably fire coral. I generally try to avoid touching any coral -- No Clue 05/18/2021 11:10AM

And they told us that too which I concurdon't want to screw stuff up -- `lag 05/18/2021 11:21AM

Concur on both counts! -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 11:13AM

Barracudas never bothered me...even the large ones -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 10:47AM

I always liked how they hung out near the line of visibility. -- No Clue 05/18/2021 10:56AM

Yeah, I wasn't worried about them, saw a few, almost territorial... -- `lag 05/18/2021 10:51AM

The big ones are territorial. -- EDGEMAN 05/18/2021 11:14AM

Reef(er) sadness :^/ Reschedule?** -- `lag 05/18/2021 08:43AM

Next year? ** -- PhotoHokieNC 05/18/2021 10:38AM
