Snorkling with sharks in TL..................

[Rhian]

Has anyone been snorkling with the sharks in Typhoon Lagoon? I was going to do it but the snorkling equippment put me off.(I know, it's stupid!). Anyway, I may do it next time but without a snorkle-just holding my breath(!)
Is it worth doing? Tell me all about it!

Its really great!!
The water's a lot colder than anywhere else (it has to be to stop algae building up), but its normally quite refreshing on a hot day. There are loads of tropical fish, and a few sharks, and most of them swim quite close to you. It gets really crowded later in the day, so you should try and make it one of the first things you do. We got there really early, and were allowed to swim where all around the pool, and stop of we wanted, there was hardly anyone there.
The snorkel's really hard to get used to when you first get in the water (I managed to swallow about a gallon of salt water ), but after about a minute its really easy.
You should definately do it when you go.

<font color=blueviolet size=4>I swam w/the sharks about 5 yrs ago @ TL. I don't remember much except for the fact that the water was freezing. The snorkle wasn't that bad, so don't let that be an issue. I don't remember much else...
