Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What do you require for snorkeling?
Snorkeling doesn't require you to have much equipment. The basic snorkeling set consists of a mask, fin, and a snorkel. If you are a non-swimmer, then getting a floatation device is recommended.
2. What is the essential feature of a snorkel?
A comfortable mouthpiece that is neither too big nor too small and fits you perfectly is the feature you should look for in a snorkel. In addition, a plastic tube with the proper diameter, length, and shape with smooth, rounded bends is essential to avoid breathing resistance. Another feature that adds to your comfort is the adjustable mask strap.
3. How does a dry snorkel differ from a semi-dry snorkel?
If you plan to snorkel in shallow waters, choose a dry snorkel as its tubes have a floating seal inside that prevents water from entering the snorkel when you are underwater in shallow depths. On the other hand, a semi-dry snorkel is best for staying above the surface due to its splash guard. Choose the correct type of snorkel tube to enjoy safe snorkeling.
4. Is freediving possible with a snorkel?
Yes, freediving is possible with a snorkel. However, remember to remove the snorkel from your mouth before diving underwater. Usually, when you hold your breath and descend into the water, your tongue seals or blocks the snorkel's mouthpiece, acting as a barrier against water rushing into your mouth. It could be dangerous in case of any distraction or accidents underwater, as your tongue might curl or slacken, letting in water into your mouth and lungs through the snorkel tube.
5. How and why are freediving snorkels different?
Freediving snorkels are different as they don't have all the extras of a purge valve and a dry top to create drag in the water. When freediving, it is necessary that the snorkel moves naturally through the water alongside the diver while descending and ascending.
6. What kind of snorkel do you use for freediving?
The kind of snorkel you use depends on your level of expertise as a freediver. While freedivers who do it as a hobby breathe up through the snorkel and keep it attached to the mask. The more common way is to wear the snorkel under the mask strap. The most comfortable ones are the soft rubber/silicone snorkel that doesn't cause any pain or discomfort against the head.
7. How to choose the perfect snorkeling gear?
When buying snorkeling gear, compare the various fits and features and purchase the one that suits you best. A few things to keep in mind while choosing a snorkeling package are:
- The snorkel mask should fit your face perfectly,
- The mask strap should be adjustable to offer comfort,
- Inspect the snorkel breathing apparatus, and
- Examine the long end of the snorkel that stays above water.
