Cool! Thanks for sharing!

just curious, why did the flying fish hit you? were you just in the way or are they aggressive fish?

That was my son, we were just playing around in the water, and I look up to see this fish flying in the air and it ran into him. it was quite funny I thought:biggrin:

Ya I have been to Cuba Varadero Loved it there also, and yes I thought that as well better snorkeling than in Mexico.But both were fun:biggrin: Thanks for the comment.

ya, i was in veradero as well. Loved it there and will definetly be going back! Ill see if i can find any of my pics, in cuba it was kinda scary because they were throwing food all around us when we were in the water, Had fish bumping into all of us. Just a feeding frenzy! saw some pretty scary barracudas too! :twised:

Sounds like the same tour i was on....did you have a guide that snorkeled with you, and you had to follow him, he had food with him also and the fish were everywhere that was cool...Ya I would love to see them pics if you can find them.

Yeah I just got back from Varadero last week and there was some huge barracudas and I liked how they fed the fish so they would come up to you.
I also did some snorkeling in about 6 feet of water and seen alot of juvi tangs, damsels, goatfish and jacknife. I stayed at the Melia Varadero.

A small barracuda well its better than nothing I guess...Oh ya I also got sick on this boat never again.:mrgreen:

[kevNnic]

i will definetly dig up some pictures when i get home, We stayed at milas las americas. Which had the golf course attatched to it. Unfortunatly i didn't get to make any rounds in. Everyone was incredibly nice there.

i didn't do any fishing because of the boats. I was almost sick on the katamaran, but with the amount of cuba libra's and cerzevas i made it out ok. :)
