How many reefers in the Caribbean?

Borrowing idea from the previous thread, how many reefers are from the Caribbean?

I’m headed over there in February.we booked the flight just haven’t booked the airBnB .any good spots you recommend for snorkeling or to take the family in general??

I used to know a couple reefers in Puerto Rico. Haven't heard from them in a while. ( I couldn't believe shipping was cheaper from there to Washington state, than almost the entire eastern seaboard)
I knew a guy in the Bahamas, but he is out of the hobby at the moment.

I am not currently in the Caribbean, but I am Dominican. Does Florida count?

Afternoon! St John is definitely a must see as it's mostly national park. For snorkeling, I recommend sapphire beach and secret harbor. A great weekend beach bar and restaurant is Hull bay Hideaway. Another great local restaurant is sibs bar and restaurant! Both are located on the north side of the island where I live. Coral world marine park is a must see as well. They also have a dolphin encounter if you are into that. The only issue this time of year is that anytime a cold front comes off the east coast the water gets stirred up and cloudy and isn't that great for snorkeling.

Hull bay also has some nice reefs but it's a little swim to get to them.

Perfect thank you very much sounds like hull bay and coral world are a definite go . Yeah I’ll let you know a little close to the date .we are going on the end of February. How are the reef/aquarium stores ? Anything worth checking out ?

 

[fishybizzness]

There aren't any reef or coral stores on the island. The closest ones are in Puerto Rico. Keep me posted.
