Creator's Key Takeaways

I started snorkeling before I started diving and I do find snorkeling to be a lot of fun, very relaxing activity.

The special thing about the rash guard is that it is 50 SPF. So, I don't need to wear sunscreen when I wear my rash guard.

It is somewhat difficult to arrange scuba diving from cruise ships. They don't tend to have them as a shore excursion activity.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Wear a long sleeve, long legged, one piece rash guard with 50 SPF to avoid needing sunscreen.
✓Pack your own snorkel and mask if you require prescription/reader lenses.
✓Look for rocky outcroppings or irregularities in the seafloor to find more fish while snorkeling.
