DC - Snorkles, masks, lockers

[mth1993]

Are the snorkels the water tight ones?

If not can I bring my own snorkels?

can I bring my own mask?

Are there secure lockers to store stuff while in DC? if so how much and where are they?

1) What do you mean a water tight snorkel? I don't know what that means.

2) I am not 100% sure, but my gut says maybe. Maybe not; I know that because of the animals you have to wear special sunscreen that they give you becasue of the animals, I don't know if this would be the same for snorkel gear.

3) When you first arrive, they will give you a small tour; and show you where to get your snorkel/swim gear, as well as your locker. Lockers are included in your addmission; the same with all your swim gear and food/drinks/snacks.

A water tight snorkel is also known as a stay-dry snorkel. the have a little valve at the top that prevents water from coming in. This eliminates the surprise of water in the mouth and the need to purge the snorkel.

Thanks for asking this. I've been wondering the same thing.

I had the same question, I emailed DC and they said that they do not have the dry snorkels, but you can bring your own mask and snorkel.

Don't really like masks, but can I bring goggles?

You really can't snorkle without a full mask.

Per the faq's on the site, you may bring your own mask and snorkle only.

The snorkles are not the dry snorkle, but does have a purge valve. (a little extra bit below the mouth piece with a one way valve where you can "blow" any extra water out) You get to keep your snorkle tube.

I was thinking about bringing my own but have now decided since I will be snorkleing in calm water, I will just save myself the hassle and use theirs.

Oh ok, I don't know how to snorkel, so I may not even use it at all lol. I like to swim under water a lot and don't want water going into the snorkel when I do go under water
