That you've been to? Anywhere in the world, for that matter.

I remember when I was little (7-8 yrs old) we had a beach not too far from West Palm Beach that had a really good spot for watching interesting fish.

I did enjoy parts of Puerto Rico in terms of the fish species as well.

Just unfortunate I'm limited here, but share your favorite spots.

So far Cozumel. Headed to Australia this winter and I'm pretty sure it's going to take number one.

I've only been snorkeling once and it was at the Dry Torugas off of Key West. So that has to be my favorite.

Dry Tortuga

I've heard great things about Cozumel, but didn't get out that way when I went to the Yucatan 12 yrs ago.

Cozumel, although I must say some of the biggest explosions of sealife I've seen has been at the rigs off the coast of Louisiana.

We freedive spearfish a lot out of venice. We usually go out to the floaters 50-60 miles out. Water is cobalt blue and the scenery is awesome.

Dry Tortugas


Gonna camp there in a couple of months. Really looking forward to it.

Cozumel had the clearest water and best fish.

Galapagos were my favorite though. Decent fish, lots of turtles, iguanas feeding on algae under water, and there was a seal that became my buddy and tagged along like a dog. He was a lot of fun.

Friend of mine dives the Red Sea and says it's one of the best spots he has ever dived.
