Question for snorkelers...

Post by stltimmy »

I have read that the Fish Bay side of Dittlif Point is a nursing ground for sharks. Has anybody snorkeled there, and if so, have you seen sharks?

I haven't snorkeled there, but when we stayed in a house over there on one trip, we'd see sharks down there.

I've taken a look at some of the entry points on the Fish Bay side of Ditleff. They looked too hairy for me. We snorkeled around the point and did see a couple of 4' sharks moving past in the deeper water. This is an area that I like to check out when the North shore has big swells. The West side, towards Hart Bay, is nicer beach-wise.

Cheers, RickG
