| | Snorkeling Near Orlando |
| Asked by Missy on June 16, 2009 |
|
Q: We are staying in the Orlando area the second week of July, and would be interested in snorkeling and deep sea fishing. We have never gone snorkeling before. Can you recommend some places that are friendly for beginners, not more than a 3-hour drive from Orlando, and are good sites for snorkeling? Thanks!
