We are staying on the cliffs and love the place we are staying at..but the swimming is not that great. Are there places you can go on the cliffs that you can hang out and swim but are not staying at that particular establishment. Last year we had lunch at Xtabi and it looked like a great place to snorkel. Does anybody have any ideas?
Some of the free spots (if you're a tourist) are Xtabi, Pee Wees, Samsara and Rockhouse (very calm). Just buy a drink and they'll let you snorkel, plus most have gear for rent at $5.
i am a big time diver, we have done the cliffs and Booby Cay thing for snorkeling for 4 years, this year i will be snorkeling at Rhodes Hall , it is supposed to be good, soon come
Try LTU. They have nice access to the Sea now. Snorkel over to Rick's or Catcha Falling Star.
here's some video next to LTU
I've heard that's good. Last time out there during one of Rob's webcasts it was too rough to snorkel.Originally Posted by jamaicarob

Glad to hear that about the access to the sea from LTU, the ladder has been kinda tough to climb for a few years. Glad to hear theie have been improvements.
Looking forward to our next visit to beautiful Jamaica! See you soon!!
Saw a pic on the LTU facebook page. Nice new structure. Pic was dated in March so I hope it's still there. I've got 3 weeks till Catcha Gardens..........

Xtabi is very good,,,,left side is better as you face the ocean. Rockhouse is good,deeper...
mi have been have been going in at Blue Cave Castle......Pee Wees ladder is under repairs........
but Pee Wees or LTU are mi two choices to go in at.........down by Pee Wees da wata stays calmer longer......
once you go past the point at SamSara the wata gets choppy........
mi like to go from Home Sweet Home to Pee Wees........dat is mi favorite area
Cool Runnings, Marko

That's one of my favorite areas too Marko. This time at Blue Cave I'm going to snorkel down to Canoe for breakfast one day. Just bought a waterproof Nikon AW100 so I hope to get some good underwater pics and video!

Pee Wee's is a good place from what I hear.. I haven't snorkeled there but a longtime frequent guest we met at the Blue Cave told us that it's good snorkeling from Blue Cave past Pee Wee's.
