Also saw a black trigger fish, the thing had to have been 18 inches long! They were huge and really mean looking.

Man I want to go back now!
For sure Cuba has some really good snorkelling I also went to an amazing place on an earlier trip. I swam 2 K from the shore to a fringing reef snorkelled for an hour and then swam back. 3 hour swim in all. There was only about a foot of water on the reef when I got there but there were channels through the corals and deeper clearings so it was an very interesting time.

I know what you mean about big corals, on the Great Barrier Reef in Aus you are swimming over endless fields of coral. Brains the size of cars etc.
