Creator's Key Takeaways

We did not do any of that. We were very very um we just had a lot of things going at home.

We literally just got off with no plans, no idea, just snorkel gear on our backs and hope that we could find some coral and we've achieved that goal.

The coral, look, most of it's dead, but you come across these pockets where there's a lot of live coral and it's pretty spectacular.

Eaton Beach definitely provides. Maybe we just got really lucky with the weather.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring snorkel gear from home to save on rentals.
Consider hiring a taxi for the day to explore multiple locations.
Check tide times for optimal snorkeling conditions.
