I'm planning a trip to St. Thomas in about 2 weeks. We can't wait! We're planning on spending one day scuba diving. I was hoping to get recommendations on dive sites that we shouldn't miss or a dive company we should use. We're also planning lots of snorkeling, so we don't necessarily need to dive at places that will also have very good snorkeling.
Also, we're planning on grilling some fresh fish and shrimp at our villa. Where would you recommend buying fresh seafood?
Thanks for your help.

Hello Tammy,
For snorkeling you can try; on St. Thomas Sapphire, Secret Harbor, Coki beach, Hull Bay and on St. John; Cinnamon Bay, Trunk Bay, Waterlemon, Lameshur. There are other spots too.
You can head to Tutu, at the corner next to the Fort Mylner Shopping Center on Saturday morning and buy fresh fish from local fishermen.
