    Just find a street called Gulf Shore Drive and follow it to the end, and you will see a small beach access point from which you will walk for a few minutes past a big condo building and find the snorkel spot. The water is fairly clear and not too murky, so you will see many fish (hundreds, if not thousands of them, actually), rocks, crabs, and sometimes perhaps encounter a turtle, a sting ray, and even a barracuda. The best time to go snorkeling is when the water is at high tide, so be sure to check the official website beforehand for the low-high tide information, so that you won’t be disappointed.

  • Case Study Of Pine Island

    The final and most controversial aspect that Pine Island failed to teach me about would have to be Christianity. Students all over the United States are told that religion can’t be implemented in the public school system, which is corrupt in so many different ways. In high school, my history teacher Mr. McPhail taught us about every religion other than Christianity, which doesn’t make much sense to me. First off, Christianity must be taught to the students of Pine Island because every other religion is implemented into the course plan. Student’s educations are being limited when it comes to regards to religion because the United States Government says it’s in violation of federal law regulations.
