Snorkeling in Jamaica I was just watching a show on the travel channel. I saw this girl snorkeling, but she was completely down under the water with little bubbles trailing behind her. It didn't appear that the snorkel was effectively being used. It was definitely a snorkel, not scuba gear. I always thought you hovered around the top of the water, with the snorkel sticking out in the air. I wonder why she went under with it on. Does it work underwater? Am I missing something?
You're right. You can only breathe with the snorkel when you're close enough to the surface for the open end of the snorkel to be clear of the surface of the water (and waves). But as has been posted, a snorkel doesn't preclude you from going underwater any more than does swimming without a snorkel does. A snorkel only allows you to swim around with your face in the water. You take a few deep breaths and then hold your breath and go down. The bubbles you saw coming from the snorkel while the girl was underwater initially were due to the air that was in the snorkel before the girl went under. The water goes into the snorkel replacing the air that was there. Since there's not place else for a swimmer to exhale when using a snorkel, one exhales through it. However, in exhaling, swimmers have to remember that the first thing they have to do when they get to the surface is to clear the water from the snorkel BEFORE inhaling. Remember those initial bubbles that escaped the snorkel as the swimmer went under? "Clearing the snorkel" requires enough breath to blow the water out of it. If the swimmer doesn't have that much air left, he or she has to get the snorkel out of their mouth before taking a breath. When they do that, most or all of the water that was in it, will run out on its own. It's a very uncomfortable feeling inhaling a little of that water when what you REALLY want is AIR. The Caribbean is a very popular spot for families to go to on vacation. By traveling together, it makes it easier to get into all-inclusive resorts. A typical all-inclusive family package to the Caribbean offers beach and water sports, spas, dining, parties, kid-friendly programs, baby-sitting, swimming pools and water slides, and much more. But keep in mind that not every so-called "all-inclusive" Caribbean family travel package includes absolutely everything you could ever want to do on vacation. Be sure you're clear on what your vacation package offers so that you can plan ahead accordingly. Although the package may include a wide variety of activities and features, there may be others you will want to take advantage of. For example, your family vacation package may include snorkeling gear, but there may be a time limit that restricts how long you are able to snorkel. And if you decide to go on a snorkeling boat trip, that may cost extra as well. The same goes for skuba diving - you may have to pay extra for equipment or be limited to a certain time frame. Along the same vein, some all-inclusive Caribbean family travel packages may include non-motorized water sports, including wind surfing and kayaking. But it may cost you extra for motorized water sports, such as water skiing. Since you're traveling as a family, you will probably all want to be together most of the time. But what about those times you want to be without the children? The good news is that most all-inclusive resorts offer a "Kid's Club" which is a room or rooms that have TV's, toys, and video games for kids ages 4-14. In such situations, staff members would be available to provide basic care and attention. In addition to offering activities for older children, a lot of Caribbean resorts are now providing nurseries for those traveling with babies or toddlers. Leaving the little ones there for even a few hours can give you some time to ski, snorkel, or to do other such activities that would be difficult to do with infants. So the important thing to remember as you look for a Caribbean family travel package that best suits you, is to get as many details as possible about what is included and what costs extra. That way you are more prepared when your family travels down to the beautiful islands.
