If you are interested in snorkeling Point of Rocks in Siesta Key Sarasota Florida then watch this video. Point of Rocks is a series of limestone rock formations located on the southern end of Siesta Key Beach, at 6900 Point of Rocks Road. It is known as one of the best areas for Siesta Key snorkeling, even for beginners, as the water is calm and relatively shallow up to around 100 yards offshore. It’s an excellent place to snorkel... depending on the tide and the weather your day may be different from the one I experienced. It had been raining every day of my trip and today was the first day it didn't. Due to the bad weather, the water clarity was not great and the water was a bit rough, but we still had a great time snorkeling. Thanks for watching!

I have a couple years ago. Point of Rocks is amazing! I switched to a full face mask a couple years back. If you haven't tried one, they are a game changer! I highly recommend checking them out. They have become more and more affordable too. Great video!

@@derickcoia2059 Thanks! I tried a full face mask, but I prefer my regular mask and snorkel. Lots of people love full face masks and it helps many that have issues using a traditional mask. Thanks for watching! 🙂

Another terrific video! That new GoPro is really nice. I started in underwater photography in the '70's and have taken thousands of underwater photos. In 1976, I was diving with the photography editor of Skindiver magazine in Grand Cayman and he gave me a tip to get great fish photos. Try using Cheese Whiz in a small can. Schooling fish love it and will follow you if you just give it small squirts. I eventually moved into macro photography taking photos from a distance of 1 1/2" to 8" but when I wanted close up photos of fish like yellow tail snapper, the Cheese Whiz always delivered.

Even though the water clarity wasn't good and there were waves, you still saw some interesting fish. I've never seen that many Atlantic spadefish in one location.

@thetoneman 2 года назад

Yes, it is a beautiful area and we had a nice snorkel in spite of the weather. Unfortunately, I do not live close, so I had to take my opportunity when I could. I am sure there are much better days with plenty more fish. 😁👍📸🤿🌊🦀🐟🦈🐬🐙🐡

Shoulda went down to Caspersen beach while you were in the neighborhood. Might find you some sharks teeth.😁 I found a couple when we were there last year. Not the prettiest beach but the adventure is fun.

We just went for the first time yesterday and it was an amazing time! We brought out hookah diving rig and spent about 2 hours underwater crawling the bottom. We picked up all kinds of trash, found a sweet dive knife and a big haul of huge whelk shells in the 10-12ft water. Can't wait to go back again!

Love your videos. If you were going on vacation to snorkel and want to see the most wildlife (dolphins, turtles, manatee), what would your vacation spot be? Novice snorkelers but good swimmers. ty

@thetoneman 2 года назад

Thanks very much! That's a tough one as no one spot would you be able to see dolphins, turtles and manatees. I primarily snorkel on the NW Florida Gulf Coast... my favorite over all snorkeling spot for diverse sea life is Panama City Beach, but I see lots of sea turtles in Destin and Navarre. You can see dolphins in most places of your on a boat... some captains will take you out to see dolphins in the wild and you can get in the water with them. You would have a better chance of catching a look at some manatees in a place like Crystal River. Like I said... tough one. 😁👍

@thetoneman 3 года назад

Why are there so many shark teeth there? 🤔

@albany222 3 года назад

@@thetoneman Don't have an exact answer to that one however I do like to speculate on things and I noticed while snorkeling there that there was an abundance of trashed sea shells, I mean a lot! It's like they just push to that location whether do to directions of storms or tides or what, I have no idea. the sand there is black as well, very unusual. If you get bored check out some of the videos on the place. People have all kinds of gadgets and gizzmos for finding teeth.

What do you film with? Any tips for a beginners on getting steady film while in “moving” water?

@thetoneman 4 года назад

I use a GoPro HERO8 Black. I use a floating extention pole and I use both hands while filming. The GoPro camera has great stabilization called Hypersmooth 2.0 so that's additional help. This video is not the best example because the water was a bit rough and I was using hypersmooth "high" on the camera and I did not like the results. Seems hypersmooth "on" gets the best result for me underwater. Thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any more questions. 😀👍📸🐟🐠🦀🤿

It was murky this time due to the bad weather while I was in town. I suspect it may be clearer with a stretch of good weather days and good tide. Was this the case for you?
