Seems to be behind just like everything else. Snorkeling in previous years has still yeilded good fish and aquaculture but the coral's shot. I have swam out 150 yards for some good snorkelling from the beach, but the first 25-40 yards, you're still seeing plastic cups, bottles, shorts,etc. It's quite a shame, perhaps in 15-20 years+,the reef will become what it once was. El Tablon is an issue that requires some serious attention real quick.
Regardless, 7 am with a hot coffee, never looked so good.
