4.0 out of 5 stars Useful reference book for the snorkeller/diver in Bermuda., October 18, 1998

This review is from: Fishwatchers Guide to West Atlantic Coral Reefs: With Coral Identification Plate, Waterproof edition (Paperback)

I have been using this book as a pre-snorkel class teaching tool for 15 years - in its waterproof plastic version. (I am not sure that paperback version will last that long!). It has 98% of the fish snorkellers in Bermuda will see, with clear illustrations and brief but informative descriptive paragraphs on the opposite page. Fish colour is sometimes a tad off, but not enough to matter. It's only drawback is lack of inclusion of lobster, anemones, sea cucumbers, and that sort of thing.
