Buck Island Reef National Monument
There are a variety of activities for park visitors to enjoy while at the park, including swimming, snorkeling, SCUBA diving, daily boat trips, hiking, bird watching, sunbathing and picnicking. Visitors should always be cautious around the reef. Use caution in the water and avoid contact with any unknown marine life. Cuts from coral abrasions can be painful. Long-spined black sea urchins are a particularly sharp hazard. Jellyfish, Portugese man-of-war, bristle worms, and fire corals sting and burn. Treat all underwater creatures with respect. It is recommended that visitors practice snorkeling in shallow water at the beach before going to the underwater trail and reef.
