This is great because I just went on a snorkel trip with "instructors" who didn't teach me anything and I had to intuively figure out most of these, including the fact that my too-big palms caused my leg cramp (fitting took 1.5 seconds and they only asked me if they were too tight and said it was good it wasn't). They kindly changed my mask while I was already in the water but didn't give me any tips on getting the water out or how any of it worked so it took me a while to get the hang of it. I wish you had been my instructor!
Kudos on your safety and environmental ethics. "Don't feed marine animals" ... so many people, including divemaster and trained "naturalist" divers violate this and other rules on a regular basis, including during training dives. It's great to hear you tell people straight out "Don't feed marine animals." Best wishes.
Are guys seriously talking about the fake acting? Well you should know its not a movie or a drama. Its a video of information and tips regarding how to snorkel and the information provided are super good. If you guys want to see pro acting you should try a movie. Good job and very informative.
Barracudas do not normally attack humans. However they are sometimes attracted by by reflections of shiny metals, so try to not to wear any jewelry for snorkeling, however if you find that you have forgotten to remove the jewelry hide it from sight or cover it with your other hand. Then back off slowly, do not approach the barracuda and it will not bother you ;)
I have done snorkelling in Tunku Abdul Rahman park, Sabah. I got sunburn and it took me 1 month to recover. I fell sick that night for soaking myself in salt water too long.
Thank you so much I'm only ten and only do it in a swimming pool but when I'm older I'll definitely be trying it in the sea this helped so much thank you
How beautiful! wish i had money to go there😍i go to egypt this july and i will try snorkeling but my dream will always be to see a tropical island with blue sky and water palm trees and white sand..🙏🏽thank you for the tips!
Your lessons are very easy to understand. I hope I can apply this to my next snorkeling session. Thank you. I don't have fins though but the googles and snorkel tips are great.
I have a question, i may sound stupid but when u r inside u have already held your breathe n gone in right? Like u r not breathing from mouth like u do when snorkel is on surface? Btw nice video, ty!
I'm here to watch how to snorkel... not a lovely couple (**** my life)... Oh well, great instructions. I learned a lot. Thank you. One day I'll visit beautiful Maldives!
What are your thoughts on the snorkel vest vs life jacket thing? Ive heard type 1 wont cut if for snorkeling but type 2 and 3 might allow you to keep your head in the water. (I see these people are wearing life jackets)
Snorkel Vests can be adjusted to the buoyancy we require, if an individual wish to dive with Snorkeling vest, they are able to do so by deflating the vest (similar to Buoyancy control device (BCD) in scuba diving). However Life jackets are not built to do so, they are buoyant and keep you always at the surface. Both types are comfortable and Safe but if you wish to do bit of diving with your snorkel, it’s highly recommend to have a Snorkel vest. in a another a case, if you are not that comfortable in the water or if it’s your first time snorkeling, it’s recommend to wear a Life jacket, which will help you float all times.
Hi Karen, this is just a rush guard, made from high UV protective fabric. You can find these in most of shops for snorkellers / divers or order online. We certainly recommend you one, as it protects much better that any sunscreen.
If we stay at the resort do we get to use snorkeling gears for free or do we have to pay for it? And is it good to Buy gears from India or we can get it good quality at better rate in Maldives?
One of the best snorkeling videos....just one question, is it mandatory to know how to swim ? Is it not possible for someone who does not know to swim ?
Hi, personally for me myself, I am not a good swimmer but I snorkel on holidays. You just need to know the basics -breathing and freestyle. Just be confident but if you have phobia of deep waters, I wouldn't recommend unless there is someone who can closely guide you.
+Gregory Stewart Great to hear and we will be ready to welcome you with open arms. Please feel free to email our res team on reservations@kurumba.com and if we can help in any other way, do let us know. Maldivian regards :-)
Dear Anakin, unfortunately in Kurumba we do not sell out equipment which we use for rent, however it is possible to purchase new sets in the resort boutique.
Dear Anne, we would suggest you to wear a life jacket every time you snorkel and do a snorkelling lesson prior to go for experience. Snorkelling is very easy, however make sure to go to water with a buddy or instructor.
dapat my nakalagay cla na sign kung san ung area na malalim na para mamention ung tao kung hanggan saan lng cla pwede kaso wala clang nkalagay.very clear na mkikita na wala sila non kea siguro my nalulunod pag my nag snorkelling..
So beautiful there and great information. I'f you are going to dive a little deeper or longer don't keep the snorkel in your mouth, water can come into your mouth and lungs, you can drown.
Swimming in the ocean is not the responsibility of the resort. When you swim in the ocean you should never swim alone and you should be aware of the currents and tides. All resorts will give you a life vest if you want one.
sir good day, may I use your video for my presentation in my PE class? I ask your permission for that, I do hope that you grant my request, Thank you in advance
Loved the fake acting at the end between those 3 people. Thanks for the tips!!

Best snorkel vid. No one mentions the importance of having a dive buddy or checking the conditions.
I've learned more from this than any other videos lol. To the point and with examples!
Thank you! This was very informative. I'm going to snorkel next year and I've never done it, this video has very helpful first tips!

It's great to hear you tell people straight out "Don't feed marine animals." Best wishes.
So true! People were feeding the fish and I was snorkeling right beneath and the fish were getting aggressive.
He forgot to mention how it is important to bite on it and not just put it in your mouth.Also,you
shouldn't open your mouth even a little.
Hey thanx! Tomorrow im gonna rock in snorkelling!! 🤟

The acting in the background by the "2 Guests" was Oscar worthy lol. Good informative video though.

I am padi adavance open water diver how i become snorkeling instructor in Maldives
I have a question. Is it safe for someone who cannot swim at all to go snorkeling with a life jacket on?
Looks like paradice. If only my home, Vancouver Island, had this kind of water and sand, it would be perfect.
True. There are a few places in the world with clear waters, but we certainly home to see you in the Maldives one day :)
Do you snorkeling now ?

I would like to know what kind of swim clothes she is wearing, I burn easily in the sun and like the long sleeve and short set to swim in.

looks interesting are you able to buy equipment after snorkelling?
Dear Anakin, unfortunately in Kurumba we do not sell out equipment which we use for rent, however it is possible to purchase new sets in the resort boutique.
+Kurumba Maldives alright thanks
:)
I'm not a very good swimmer at all I do panic at times, but I would love to go snorkelling at some point. Would I need to be more confident to do so?
Dear Anne, we would suggest you to wear a life jacket every time you snorkel and do a snorkelling lesson prior to go for experience. Snorkelling is very easy, however make sure to go to water with a buddy or instructor.
It's Beautiful video!
thanks for sharing
Thank you!
This is great advice, love it!
Great video!
dapat my nakalagay cla na sign kung san ung area na malalim na para mamention ung tao kung hanggan saan lng cla pwede kaso wala clang nkalagay.very clear na mkikita na wala sila non kea siguro my nalulunod pag my nag snorkelling..
Lovely tips bro love from India
Can a non-swimmer try snorkeling?
So beautiful there and great information. I'f you are going to dive a little deeper or longer don't keep the snorkel in your mouth, water can come into your mouth and lungs, you can drown.
I am reviewing this just a week my co pilipino is drown snorkeling in that place why there is no life vest for the first timer
Swimming in the ocean is not the responsibility of the resort. When you swim in the ocean you should never swim alone and you should be aware of the currents and tides. All resorts will give you a life vest if you want one.
Do you have sharks in Kurumba?
Great tips and video! Thank you ;)
