Where is it? |
Horseshoe Bay can be considered a tourist trap. A quick search on Google reveals that it was rated the number 8 beach on TripAdvisor. This must mean it is a great beach right? Well, for your average beach-going-tourist, maybe. But the snorkeling here is not as good as some of the other locations listed. Why is the snorkeling not great you ask? In answer to this question, this beach's wave action is a bit higher than some others. Whale Bone Bay, for example, is protected more than Horseshoe Bay is. So only certain species that like higher wave energy could live at Horseshoe Bay. But a main reason may be because there is so much human interaction.
