There are a lot of places that are good for snorkelling right off the beach along the coastline. We had our own car there in october and tried different places. You can go just outside Eco-dive, outside wawa-wewe II/Dancing dragon and our favourite just outside Wawa-wewe I where I even spotted a barracuda.
As for getting back in the boat I would just tell them about the worries and ask for a little help. Anyway you shouldn't need to use your arms at all while snorkelling, so maybe you will be fine on your own.
