Snorkeling is the practice of swimming at the surface of a body of water while equipped with a diving mask, a shaped tube called a snorkel,
and usually swimfins. In cooler waters, a wetsuit may also be worn. Combining these tools allows the snorkeler to observe underwater
attractions for extended periods of time with relatively little effort.
Snorkeling is a popular recreational activity, particularly at tropical resort destinations and many places recreational scuba divers venture.
Snorkeling is also employed by scuba divers when near the surface, and search and rescue teams may snorkel as part of a water-based
search.
The primary attraction of snorkeling is the opportunity to observe underwater life in a natural setting. This may include coral reefs and their
denizens, such as fish, cephalopods, starfish, sea urchins, and mollusks. Snorkeling in sandy areas may allow sighting of rays and various
flatfish. Other organisms that can be seen while snorkeling include various forms of seaweed, jellyfish, shrimp, sea turtles, and occasionally
anything else which may be found in the ocean. Many of the organisms found in reef locations are vibrantly colored and very abundant,
making for an engrossing experience.
Snorkeling requires no special training, only the ability to swim and to breathe through the snorkel. However, it is considered advisable that
one get some instruction from a tour guide, dive shop, or equipment rental shop, any of which often can be found around popular snorkeling
locations. Instruction generally covers equipment usage, basic safety, what to look for, and what to look out for, including how not to damage
fragile organisms such as coral. As with scuba diving, it is always recommended that one not snorkel alone, but rather with a "buddy," a
guide, or a tour group.
The mask and snorkel are similar to those used in scuba diving, but since they are not subjected to the pressures of deep water, they can be
more lightweight and comfortable.
