One our fave snorkel sites is
MONKEY POINT, Guana Island.
Few National Park Moorings, with their usual 1.5 hr time limit. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE INDIANS AND PELICAN
The other Fave , that you have , The Indians and Pelican. a few N.P. moorings, same time limit, but we get there early as later on, the small mooring field is packed.
We also honor the 1.5 hr time limit to allow others to enjoy the excellent snorkeling there as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Caves:
For us, we would pass on the caves. Water is clear but pretty light on marine life. But, that is our opinion. Also, the day snorkel boats arrive with loads of visitors . We would pass on all that, and snorkel at some of your other selections.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Watermellon Cay is in the USVI......St John......one trip we sailed over after clearing out of Sopers Hole, West end, Tortoal...... Cleared in at Cruz Bay..... Snorkeled Water Mellon Cay, and returned back to the BVI the next day, , cleared back in at Sopers . Personally, not worth the effort and never did that again. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANEGADA FLASH OF BEAUTY
I really like Baards idea of snorkeling at Anegada...in front of Flash of Beauty... we missed that on our Anegada visit pre Irma.... sounds super.
You all are going to have a fantastic BVI good time.

Keep an eye on water with a new crew. Usually conserving water isn't a priority. The only stop I see on your route is Leverick. Not sure I'd change the route because it's only 5 days but you may want to make sure you can top off there.

Diamond Cay if you like Green Turtles. They are very hard to not bump into! Not much else there to see...but worth it for them in our opinion. And lunch at B-Line...a 'proper' Caribbean beach bar!
