The essential checklist
Ask: 1) Where will we snorkel? 2) Is the location subject to change? 3) What vessel is used? 4) Is the tour shared or private? 5) How long is the full trip? 6) How much time is spent in the water? 7) Are mask, snorkel and fins included? 8) Are flotation devices available in suitable sizes? 9) What swimming ability is required? 10) Are children accepted and what are the age limits? 11) Is a guide in the water? 12) What food and drinks are included? 13) Are transportation or park fees extra? 14) What happens if conditions are unsuitable? 15) What is the cancellation and refund policy?
Get the details in writing
Your confirmation should show the date, meeting point, departure time, passenger count, total price, inclusions and cancellation terms.
Share important needs
Tell the operator about non-swimmers, young children, mobility needs, medical concerns relevant to water activity and any equipment requirements before paying.
Compare the complete experience
Compare location, guide support, water time, boat, equipment and policies rather than choosing only by price or promotional photographs.
