The crystal clear water off the coast of Clifton is the perfect setting for a snorkelling adventure. Discover an underwater sculpture garden, admire breathtaking coral reefs, explore fascinating shipwrecks, or just drift into the quiet solitude of the ocean when you head out on a snorkel adventure in Nassau, Bahamas.

Off the coast of Clifton, you will find the world’s largest underwater sculpture, Ocean Atlas, created by artist Jason deCaires Taylor. This 18-foot-tall, 60-ton unique artistic production sits in the BREEF Sir Nicholas Nuttall Coral Reef Sculpture Garden along with the sculptures Lucayan Faces by Andret John, and Virtuoso Man by WilliceyTynes. It’s truly one of the most beautiful sights to witness and marvel at as you enjoy the incredible artistry and pay homage to history and culture, making it a highlight of our snorkeling tours.

Natural reefs and man-made reef balls ensure that the water off our coast is teeming with sea life. Drift quietly in the ocean, and you might soon find yourself surrounded by beautiful tropical fish and other interesting marine animals. If you are looking for an up close and personal experience with beautiful and diverse ocean life, then this tour is perfect for you. We’re excited to bring you the best snorkeling excursion that helps you connect with nature.

The beaches of Clifton Point set the stage for several motion pictures in the late 20th Century, including Thunderball 1965, Never Say Never Again 1983, and Jaws the Revenge 1987. Props from these movies still remain offshore, providing points of interest for adventurous snorkelers. Whether you’re a movie buff or a marine enthusiast you are sure to find these sites worth exploring, and there’s no better choice than our snorkeling tours and adventures in the historic waters of Nassau, Bahamas.
