Champagne Snorkeling Tour
Champagne is a unique snorkel site... it's a large
granite reef 100 meters off-shore, starting at a
depth of 3 feet and dropping down to 80 feet. It's
teeming with tropical fish including, Black Bar
Soldier Fish, Squirrel Fish trumpet fish, porcupine
fish and abundance of both invertebrate like pederson
shrimp, arrow crabs, banded shrimp and squid.
The
reef is cloaked in sponges, anemones and crinoids.
A 250 year old wreck sits in 18 feet and one can
see 3 fused cannon with planking. Very close to
the shore-line are the "HOT SPRINGS" -
CHAMPANGE.
These geo-thermal vents in 3 feet pump hot fresh
water and air bubbles from the sea-bed. Snorkeling
through these drops of liquid crystal is like
being in a glass of Champagne.
