We have been snorkelling at Amed a few times and while it is easy snorkelling and there is a lot to see, we've found that each time there has been a lot of sea lice. Even though the stinging is quite short lived I hate the things and it really affects my enjoyment of the dive. There are, however, ways to minimise the biting. Wearing all (and I really mean all) over sunscreen with built in insect repellent helps as does swimming naked! They tend to bite more when they get trapped in your bathers :)
