what is the best underwater camera to get for high quality pictures?

I am going on a cruise vacation and we are going to be doing lots of underwater snorkeling. I want a camera that takes really high quality underwater pictures, but i don’t want to get a photography camera. Something like a point and shooe that I can use for an every day camera as well. All you camera experts please help me out in choosing the right one!

Thank you<3

    A Canon D10 would be a good one. It’s a waterproof camera and is waterproof up to 33 ft. deep.
    You can see sample photos on Amazon.
    There is also a $20 mail in rebate for the camera.

    if you have a camera already that takes decent pictures, just get this to put it in:

    It’s the cheapest underwater case you can get, and it works with almost all cameras.

    I have used the Aquapak, and I’m not a big fan.
    I have several canon P&S cameras, and almost all of them have an underwater enclosure available.
    check out the following link for examples.

    If you don’t have a P&S already, I would suggest buying a canon, which has an enclosure available. It’s a bit pricey, but it will pay for itself with quality photos (IMHO)
