I like snorkeling/diving at Grecian Rocks in Pennekamp state park. The reef cuts off a lot of the waves so you have a much calmer experience, along with shallow water. I always see the most amazing things out there. There is an orange Elkhorn colony there that is literally 10-12' tall and 6-7' wide. If you like sps, it will blow your mind. I can't even imagine how old it is. There is also the most intriguing array of gorgonians to be found. It does get busy however with snorkeling charters at times.

One of the better shallow diving spots in the Islamorada area is called "hens and chickens"
