Where are the best snorkelling locations in Las Americas & Los Cristianos, Tenerife?

Hi, Can anyone advise where are good places to go snorkelling? We hope to be staying in Playa Las Americas / Los Cristianos area in March / April 2012. We're holidaying and don't want to have the expense of car hire but understand the bus service is good.

if you mean just with goggles and a snorkel, Alcala is lovely to have a swim and see plenty of fish without the risk of a speedboat whizzing close by... also La Caleta, just past Las Americas.... if the beach is too sandy you won't see as much, so anywhere that's a bit rocky/pebbly .... always keep eye out for undercurrents ... i'm always wary of the sea, though i'm a good swimmer, i'm not good with my face in water, hence i always wear snorkel and mask LOL ... bus service is good, get yourself a bono bus card, saves you a few centimos
