Nassau Snorkeling

A trip to the Bahamas isn't complete without experiencing the thrill of snorkeling. Nassau, capital of the Bahamas, is home to some of the greatest snorkeling sites in the world. There are a wide variety of Nassau snorkeling tours that take full advantage of all the city has to offer. You can swim down to the coral reefs, the ocean water lapping at your body, as scores of reef fish brush by the soles of your feet. The brightly colored corals will delight your eyes as you gaze into the limitless ocean. Each and every one of Nassau snorkeling sites delivers an excursion not all that different from the one just detailed, and provide experiences that you will never forget.

There are four snorkeling locations, in particular, that are among the best in Nassau. The Goulding Cay Reefs, located just off New Providence island, are teaming with tons of tropical colored fish and picturesque elkhorn coral. The waters are peaceful and serene, providing the perfect backdrop for a visit to the Reefs. The Rose Island Reefs is another location that provides an exhilarating experience. The clear turquoise waters are filled to the brim with many species of fish and a beautiful reef, which is perfect for those not accustomed to diving too deep. It is also home to the wreck of the Alcora, a freighter sunk by the local government in 1983.
