Snorkeling in around Charleston SC?

[tibbs14]

Is there anywhere to go around Charleston where you can do some decent snorkeling and actually see something? I am going there in a couple of days and was wondering if I should bring my snorkel and mask. Thanks.

Sorry, mate, as far as I know this isn't the place to snorkel. I grew up here, and the only snorkeling I ever did was in the large tidal pools on the beach at Sullivan's Island when I was a kid. They are only about three feet deep, if that. There's nothing really off the beach and the currents get bad outside the groins anyway.

Alrigtht thanks for the reply.

do you have to get a hobby permit just for collecting shark teeth, anyone know ?

you can collect shark teeth without a hobby permit but if the DNR catches you, they will write you a ticket.

check out this offshore Carolina Manta Ray. Found this photo posted today on Facebook. Photo was taken on the Hyde shipwreck.
