Save ≈ €24Save ≈ $28 (27% off)
The sculptures sit offshore in the Molinere-Beausejour marine park, so you need a boat - there's no shore-snorkel substitute. The DIY saving is booking a local dive/snorkel centre direct instead of through the ship. Devotion 2 Ocean and other St. George's-area centres run scheduled sculpture-park snorkel trips for roughly US$55-65 and offer a complimentary or low-cost cruise-passenger pickup; confirm the pickup point and return time when you book.
