Snorkeling Gear

Essential Snorkeling Gear

One of the best things about snorkeling in Hawaii is how little equipment you need.  You’ll only need a properly fitting mask, a snorkel, and a comfortable set of fins.  Optional gear include a disposable underwater camera, a thin wetsuit, and flotation gear depending on your needs.

The articles below will help you make sense of the many choices of snorkeling gear so you can choose the snorkeling gear that works best for you and avoid the gear you don’t.

Snorkeling Wisely

I know… I know… but it has to be said.  The Hawaii snorkeling information contained within these pages is meant only as a general guide as to what to expect when visiting the Hawaiian Islands.  As beautiful and mild as Hawaii usually is, weather is always unpredictable.  Know your swimming ability.  Be prudent and take into consideration the weather and environmental conditions when planning your beach activities.  Obey warning signs, they are there to protect you.  “Those waves don’t look that bad” are famous last words.  I want you to enjoy all that our beautiful islands have to offer.  Just use common sense, ok.

Respect

Hawaii is not a theme park – it is our home.

Please be a responsible guest by treading gently, exploring carefully, and being good stewards of our fragile ecosystem.

Thank you for being mindful while visiting our islands and protecting our special environment, unique culture, and people.
