1 comments about Diving and Snorkeling Guide to the Bahamas Family Islands and Grand Bahama (Pisces Diving & Snorkeling Guides).

1. We purchased this book in preparation for a family snorkeling trip to the Bahamas Out Islands. We don't scuba dive, so we were specifically looking for snorkeling information. Since this book includes "Snorkeling" in its title, we assumed there would be some specific snorkeling info included.

   We were very disappointed as the entire book is devoted to dive-sites. Including "snorkeling" in the book title is, we feel, false advertising. I'm not sure the word snorkeling is ever used any where inside the book aside from the title page.

   Even for dive information, the book falls short. For instance, there are no maps or directions to indicate approximately where the dive sites are located or how to get to them.

   I would not recommend this book. There must be other more informative, more comprehensive books on the subject. I wish I had remembered to return the book to Amazon.com within the alloted time period. For our purposes, it was a waste of money.

1. This book is woefully lacking in content. The back cover states, "The Two-Minute Solution for the Perfect Trip!". That's probably how long it takes to read the entire book. In fairness, quickness is the whole premise of this guide - one to three sentence paragraphs about each subject. The author makes some very good suggestions, just not enough information about how to accomplish them.

1. The book had some interesting things in it but overall was not as helpful as we had hoped. There were marinas not listed that we saw and some of the marinas that were in the book we couldn't find. It also failed to tell us that at one point there is a sharp turn that is not clearly marked at all. Thankfully there was another boat nearby that we could ask. We were glad to have the book but wish it was more acurate.
