 If a Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words . . . July 8, 2008
With almost 300 crisp color photographs of the fish, sponges, corals, and other living things in the Caribbean, this is an invaluable guide for the snorkeler or scuba diver. The various wrasses, parrotfish, blennies, angelfish, surgeonfish, as well as groupers, jacks and porgies are illustrated and succinctly described. The names are as colorful as the fish! With this guide you'll know when you've seen a social feather duster, a slippery dick, a moon jelly.
This is an 80-page guide, not exhaustive or complete, but for the vast majority of underwater explorers, it's just the thing. I've been using it for diving and snorkeling in the Florida Keys for over ten years.
 Not as definitive as I expected it to be June 19, 2008
I have the entire Reef Collection by these authors and use it after scuba diving. We were only going to be snorkeling in Cozumel, so I brought this more packable book along. But many of the fish, corals & sponges that I observed under water there were NOT in this book. Probably better suited for beginner snorkelers.
great for florida August 12, 2007
This guide is short, but very effective. The book has drawings as well as pictures for fish identification. The drawings point out pertinent points for differentiation between fish and how the fish are classified. The book includes corals and some invertebrates as well. I bought this book before going snorkeling in Key Largo. To my surprise, I identified many of the fish as well as corals in this book. For the value, this book is a great purchase for carribean, florida snorkeling, or scuba diving trips.
Great Photos July 15, 2006

Snorkeling Guide to Marine Life is a very handy truncation of three heavy, bulky, but excellent references. There are extraordinary photographs of fish, creatures, and coral taken by noticeable experts. The fish species covered are stunning, and carefully chosen for quality. The others are also amazing and excilirating. A favorite fish species of mine, the Trumpetfish, is included here, shown in a beautiful photograph. Other interesting fish, such as puffers, cowfish, and triggerfish, are also listed. The "Creature Identification" section of the guide is as carefully picked out as the "Fish" ID part. Beautiful crabs, shrimps, and others are shown in nice photos. All make to combine a short, but very helpful field companion.
