A few weeks ago we had friends over from Australia so spent a lot of time at the beach and/or snorkelling. It was fantastic! One of my favourite beaches, not too far from home is Manza Beach. The waters are crystal clear, it's fine for swimming at both low and high tide and you can snorkel right off the beach. You definitely need reef shoes though cause there are sea urchins all over the place. It's right next to Nabee beach, which has a netted swim area, if you prefer, but I like walking a little bit to Manza beach because there are lots of shady areas to sit close to the beach, and the snorkelling gets me everytime!
![Manza Beach and Nabbee beach in Onna, are next to each other and both great. Nabee is a netted beach good for a swim during both low and high tide. You can rent beach umbrellas, snorkels etc as well as have a BBQ under one of their covered seating areas. Manza beach is right next to it and is not nettes, and therefore has nice snorkelling on a clear day, as well as good shady spots to sit.](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikcqxLbyF0aJvwiY155s-EEyQaleZn3dpFwa5hsdjDseqsTQPct1eGbpkj5RGpVmoc9ZhChfasLC4FMresV6p2M6f9OFYUb_D_h3seQXG5X-hb0yamdDFwylvsU7NmaWqO8pLdxI2hga4/s280/blogger-image-2028573100.jpg) |

There are sea urchins everywhere so you really need reef shoes to be safe |

This urchin was the craziest/creepiest thing. If you look closely you can see two eyes and an orange mouth! |

I spent ages following this guy around with my camera so I could get a good shot of him. |
