We have snorkeled all over the world, in Hawaii, many places in the Caribbean, and on the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
But the very best snorkeling we have experienced was in the Philippines. I don't even remember exactly where it was (Panglao?) but it was a tiny little reef, in very shallow water, maybe two feet deep, and absolutely covered in small tropical fish.
It was not a big area, but we remember it the most.

World's best snorkeling is in the Philippines
We can't wait to snorkel in the Philippines. It is on our list! Thanks for wetting our appetite.

Philippines superb alright by: Allan
We spent a month checking out numerous spots. Apo Island - small and beautiful. 2 cozy little resorts - inexpensive. But the snorkelling!!!! 1000 acres of marine sanctuary. mega cities of clownfish. crystal clear water. 1-2 meters depth.
Also Palawan - El Nido / Bascuit Bay - might be one of the most beautiful places any where. Very much like Halong Bay in Vietnam but bigger and better. Very unspoiled. Almost all the snorkelling spots are great.
