I had some travel mates snorkel at Buck Island. I was on the boat but did not go in. The documentation led me to believe that I could actually be on the island (taking photos) while others were snorkeling. That is not correct. It is strictly snorkeling.

Anyway, the water was incredibly clear! Snorkelers coming back on board reported seeing an octopus, a barracuda, and a reef shark, along with other various and sundry reef fish. I heard nothing but comments of amazement.

Have not been snorkeling at St. John so i can't add anything about that location.
