These were not taken in SXM but were taken today in Florida at Phil Foster park in Florida. I am sending because a month or two ago I posted some of my snorkeling pic's of previous years in SXM and Carol said she liked Angel Fish. The last two aren't Angels but I have never seen the rainbow parrotfish in SXM so I just sent them. Sorry this isn't SXM pictures but again I thought Carol would like the 3 different Angels.

Sorry for putting in a duplicate of the queen angel it was supposed to be a different queen angel.

Nice Video. I have logged just shy of 300 dives in SXM and yet to do that dive. Maybe next year if I keep diving.

That should have been “Thank you.”

Beautiful pictures. Were these taken under the bridge??? Drive by there all the time, but have never gone in there.

Yes, but go about 30 minutes before and after high tide as the water is very clear and there are more fish. The last few days there was between 50-75 scuba divers among the snorklelers. I see more fish for the effort here than SXM as you don't have to fight the waves. There are more angel fish along with many of the juvinile queen angel (probably my favorite) along with juvinile grey and French angel. Yesterday a manatee swam about 10 feet in front of me I did get a picture of it.
If you live in the area and snorkel I highly recommend it.

Nice video. Thanks for sharing. I have over 3000 dives but none at SXM but I might after seeing your video. Still not the diving as your can obtain off Saba near Diamond, Eye of the Needle or Twilight Zone.
