Snorkeling in Grand Cayman

[Janos]

which is better for snorkeling on Grand Cayman?

Eden Rock

OR

Smith Cove?

I've been snorkeling for years at Eden Rock. Free shower and I can see the same things the scuba divers see. I've seen turtles there often. And it is free, and I don't need transportation to get there. It is easy walking distance from the tender landing.

Hi Janos, we’ve snorkeled at Grand Cayman a few times, but they’ve always been from excursion boats and I don’t remember anyone ever telling us what the locations were. Our favorite was a three stop catamaran tour through a third-party excursion company where we got to snorkel at a coral reef, snorkel at a shipwreck and swim with the stingrays. There were only 17 people on the tour and it was fantastic!

We love Eden Rock. I stay closer to the shore line and always see octopus, shrimp, lobster and beautiful fish. Jerry adventures out further and sees hammerhead sharks, eels, etc.

Thanks for the feedback. Looks like Eden Rock. Just wondering if one can change into dry clothes at Eden Rock after going snorkeling?
