One suggestion, turn off the all CAPS. Typing in all caps is considered shouting and it is harder to read.
In St. M. take a taxi over to the french side to Orient Beach. Very nice and with 3 kids, less expensive than the ships excursion.

Keep in mind that Orient Beach is clothing optional, especially going with children.

We were just at Orient Beach (clothed side 
) and there seemed to be a lot of water activity, but not snokeling, going on. Where would one snorkel? We stayed at the end by the nude beach area.

Just back! Skip Orient for snorkeling, go to Dawn Beach instead, Beautiful place, $1 Caribs, pretty good snorkeling. Barbados: Folkestone Marine Park has good snorkeling but the place itself is kind of dirty (no beach) - go around the point ot the right as you face the water, beautiful resort beach, same reef. Martinique is not known for snorkeling. Too bad you're not going to St. Thomas/St. John...
