Snorkeling is beautiful but also dangerous: our boat is stationary right on the border between the transparent and sharp waters and the black and mysterious overhang, from 10 to 40 meters in a few strokes.<\/p>\n<p>The queens of Catalina are the tall palm trees and full of cocchi; Dominicans collect them and sell them for a few euros, along with coconut oil but also freshly caught lobsters. Plus, palm trees on this island are truly one of the few places to shelter from the sun, the only place we enjoyed some cool from 35 degrees at 10am.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\"
