Nude Snorkling
Return to DiscussionsSnorkeling is a very easy activity, especially while on a cruise in the Caribbean. The cruise ship normally will have snorkeling excursions that will be clothing optional at the various ports we will dock at. We have snorkeled over 30 years and very much enjoy the activity. We usually bring our own gear (mask, fins and snorkel) but have at times just left it at home and went with the gear the excursion boats offer - most of the time decent gear.
Most people enjoy snorkeling although sometimes there are folks that find it difficult to put their head underwater and/or are not good swimmers. For those folks that are not swimmers but still want to partake....they usually have noodles or lifejackets you can wear so that you feel more comfortable in the water.
We have found when the excursion says Party/Snorkeling cruise....and it is in Jamaica...it probably means that it is mostly a party boat with very little good snorkeling.
Nude snorkeling especially in warm water around the Caribbean is a special treat, I hope you try, and I hope you see lots of fish, turtles, rays. Let me know if you have other questions. J&J
We did the Party/Nude Snorkel in Cozumel on the 2013 cruise. The snorkeling wasn't that great, but then we went to a private beach area and there were of course rum drinks available on the catamarans and beach. BN had exclusive use of the catamarans and private beach for the morning, and a second ship in port had access to afternoon slots. On the way back people were dancing on the top of the catamarans. Well, the first catamaran out for the afternoon was filled with a group that thought they were wild partiers and you could hear them coming. When our catamarans passed, they saw several boats full of naked people partying just as much. The look on their faces was priceless when they realized they weren't the party animals they thought they were.
We are doing the Captain Alan C/O snorkeling trip around the island in St. Martin (What used to be called the Peggy & Paul Nude Cruise before Peggy left... Paul is still the captain for the C/O cruises) mainly because we've been to SXM many times, we expect the Club Orient beach to be packed with an entire ship full of nudists in port, and we've always wanted to do either Peggy & Paul's or the Tiko-Tiko cruise anyway. This excursion isn't through the cruise line.
For ports we haven't been to we look at the regular shore excursions, too, and usually just pick from what is offered through the ship.

Did nude snorkeling out in front of the nude beach at our resort in jamaica when we got married. Saw all kinds of fish, Even an Octopus. It really is quite easy and enjoyable just putting around.
