    We always snorkel in the Rochouse are at least once a trip. Always found quite a bit to see there. Just eat lunch there afterward, if you are using the property for snorkeling.

    Did you mean Rhodes Beach Resort ?
    I did not like there. You should swim for 600m before hit the corals. Better bring floats with you.
    I also did not like grass on the bottom. Made me quite nervous

    2nd Patty K - nice little warm up snorkel off canoe bar beach - turn right to snorkel in front of the Yacht Club. I used to fish there all the time.

    Dam that sucks and I am sorry to hear that. I have spent countless hours in the ocean there and I have hear about jellyfish but have yet to encounter one and I hope I don't. Knock on wood. Hopefully you still had a good time in Negril

    I've never seen jelly fish in my trips but I have been "stung" when I brushed up against the ropes in the sea. I guess they are home to some stingy little guys. I now make sure to give any buoy ropes a wide berth.

    Ha! Same thing happened to me. My wife and I were walking along the beach, I felt a sting in my foot, collapsed to the ground and let out a loud expletive. The pain actually went away pretty quickly, as I walked it off.

    But yeah, now I try to avoid those ropes.

    We stayed at Rhodes Beach Resort for a couple nights before moving to White Sands for the rest of our trip. The snorkeling at Rhodes was very good off the cement pier, which is to the left of the pool when looking at the ocean. We saw a moray eel, lots of fish, and tons of sea cucumbers. You can swim out around a little island. Past the island it gets deep. We also went out on the pier after dark with a big flashlight, and the entire sea floor looked like it was moving. The sea cucumbers come out at night, and they are creepy. Saw a lion fish at night as well.

    1999 I stepped off a dive boat as we were coming to shore and stepped right on a big jelly fish!!! I can still feel the burning!! Rum vinegar was the key! Definitely hurt like hell for a day or two!!!
