SNORKELING
What is it?
The easiest way to observe life under water!
How do you do it?
This activity consists of floating on the surface of the water, face down of course!
Why do it?
This question is often asked! And the answer is: “why NOT do it?” Snorkeling
provides fantastic emotions with minimal physical and even economic effort! It allows us to discover the secrets of the first meters of water while lying comfortably!
What do I need?
Mask, fins, snorkel, possibly a life jacket if I don't feel very safe in deeper water.
Where is it done?
We can really snorkel anywhere! From a depth of 1 meter onwards!
Be careful though! There are differences between one sea and another! By finning inside the site you can discover them!
We can only give you a preview of some features to consider before you jump in!
Temperature
Consider whether I need anything else besides a swimsuit.
Visibility
How many meters can you see underwater? This will depend a lot on the environmental conditions and the sea we are in. In some seas, from the surface we can see up to 30 meters with ideal conditions; in others, however, we can see no more than a few meters from our nose.
Currents and tides
There will be a lot to talk about on this!
Who do you do it with?
Snorkeling can also be done alone, in front of the beach for example, but where do we leave the joy of
sharing with someone what we manage to discover? Remember: 4 eyes are better than 2 and 6 are better than 4! But it doesn't end there...
The sea is a world in itself and is not always very well known so why not rely on someone who dedicates his life to studying it? He could show you truly extraordinary things! Nowadays all over the world there are centers that promote snorkeling activities by entrusting you to marine biologists who are just waiting to let everyone know about the marine beauties! You will be accompanied and totally assisted, the marine biologists
will be happy to transmit their passion!
But am I capable of doing it?
Snorkeling has no age or difficulty and above all it is NOT dangerous!
EVERYONE and when we say everyone, we mean EVERYONE can do it, no Olympic swimming medal or professional diving skills are needed! Each of us can live this unique experience, simply by following a few precautions, because as always, the most important thing is to know what we are doing!
