Snorkeling Point of Rocks in Siesta Key Sarasota Florida
Рет қаралды 54,589
4 жыл бұрынIf you are interested in snorkeling Point of Rocks in Siesta Key Sarasota Florida then watch this video. Point of Rocks is a series of limestone rock formations located on the southern end of Siesta Key Beach, at 6900 Point of Rocks Road. It is known as one of the best areas for Siesta Key snorkeling, even for beginners, as the water is calm and relatively shallow up to around 100 yards offshore. It’s an excellent place to snorkel... depending on the tide and the weather your day may be different from the one I experienced. It had been raining every day of my trip and today was the first day it didn't. Due to the bad weather, the water clarity was not great and the water was a bit rough, but we still had a great time snorkeling. Thanks for watching!

Another terrific video! That new GoPro is really nice. I started in underwater photography in the '70's and have taken thousands of underwater photos. In 1976, I was diving with the photography editor of Skindiver magazine in Grand Cayman and he gave me a tip to get great fish photos. Try using Cheese Whiz in a small can. Schooling fish love it and will follow you if you just give it small squirts. I eventually moved into macro photography taking photos from a distance of 1 1/2" to 8" but when I wanted close up photos of fish like yellow tail snapper, the Cheese Whiz always delivered.

Love your videos. If you were going on vacation to snorkel and want to see the most wildlife (dolphins, turtles, manatee), what would your vacation spot be? Novice snorkelers but good swimmers. ty
@thetoneman 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks very much! That's a tough one as no one spot would you be able to see dolphins, turtles and manatees. I primarily snorkel on the NW Florida Gulf Coast... my favorite over all snorkeling spot for diverse sea life is Panama City Beach, but I see lots of sea turtles in Destin and Navarre. You can see dolphins in most places of your on a boat... some captains will take you out to see dolphins in the wild and you can get in the water with them. You would have a better chance of catching a look at some manatees in a place like Crystal River. Like I said... tough one. ðŸ˜ðŸ‘

What do you film with? Any tips for a beginners on getting steady film while in “moving†water?
@thetoneman 4 жыл бұрын
I use a GoPro HERO8 Black. I use a floating extention pole and I use both hands while filming. The GoPro camera has great stabilization called Hypersmooth 2.0 so that's additional help. This video is not the best example because the water was a bit rough and I was using hypersmooth "high" on the camera and I did not like the results. Seems hypersmooth "on" gets the best result for me underwater. Thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any more questions. 😀ðŸ‘📸ðŸŸðŸ 🦀🤿
