Fins, mask and snorkel as well as a noodle under your arms makes for fairly safe snorkeling if you are close to the shore. We dive while on Culebra, but when not diving, you will find us snorkeling. We loved Melones. Enter at the picnic tables and swim to the right. It front of a lg white house is fantastic snorkeling. Saw about as much there as I did diving. Depth is probably 15 ft.
We also dove Tamarindo a couple of times in the two weeks we were there. We saw several turtles. Just go in by the picnic tables and swim to the left. You will begin to see turtle grass. The smaller turtles like to munch on the grass just beginning to peak out of the sand and the larger ones the more mature grasses. We also loved Soldado. You do have to be very cautious of the acacia thorns. We were following a guy who lived back that way and was cutting the acacia bushes and throwing them to the side as we followed him. We entered the water and swam to the left. Lots of neat things to see including squads of squid!!
