Margate Bay (55)
★★★★☆
(838)
Before the reef really starts you have a large stretch of sand that is also interesting for snorkelers. The reef itself is named after the schools of “Black Margate“ that you can encounter here.
You’ll see typical Caribbean life like nurse and reef sharks, possible eagle rays, stingrays, and lots of fish: snapper, angelfish, grunts, parrotfish.
