I would bring it. Some places will still be good to snorkel. If nothing else you could snorkel along and pick up debris left from Irma. Might even find a treasure.

Many times the best time to scuba or snorkel is after a big storm but after all of the sand and silt settle. Storms often uncover things that were buried for years.
Yes it's worth it, not much changed underwater it's still stunning..

No worries! Your English is much better than my French, which is virtually nonexistent!

Your English is a lot better than my French. No need to be sorry.

English as their second language is a lot better than many of us who use it as our only language. And it’s a lot better than the small smathering of French I learned in high school a lifetime ago.
With regard to bringing or not bringing the ‘tuba’, my mantra is I’d far prefer to have something and not use it than to be kicking myself for wanting to use that which I didn’t bother to bring with me but easily could have........😊😊
