If you are snorkeling or shore diving, you will find that the fuel pier at Windsock has an easy sandy entry. Schools of fish hang out underneath the pier. You will find many juveniles in the shallows in the coral rubble. The reef starts just below the pier at about 22ft and descends to about 90ft. If you have the unfortunate timing of diving while a cruise is arriving or leaving, you will see how the noise impacts the marine life by their change in behavior and it will most likely be so bothersome to you that you will abort your dive. The beach here is very popular due to the calm water, easy entry, and that you can get some respite from the sun underneath some trees. On Sundays and holidays, you will find many locals here.
