My first foray into the reefs was with a snorkel. Within a few minutes, I swam to the edge of the reefs and was awestruck with the variety of shapes and colors I could see of the reefs. The sheer scope needs to be seen in person to truly grasp. I began to swim within the channels that were flowing between the reefs and within a short time; I was surrounded by both reefs and fish in every direction that I looked.
