Snorkeling
Equipment
Snorkeling involves three basic pieces of
equipment; the mask, the snorkel and the fins. When you
come aboard the Royal Hawaiian Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise,
we provide basic snorkeling gear for average size adults
and children. If you are near sighted and can't see without
your glasses you may want to consider purchasing or renting
a prescription mask. Glasses and snorkels just don't mix.
In Hawaii you can contact Snorkel
Bob's to rent quality snorkel gear for you entire visit
and they rent prescription masks and over-sized fins for
those of you born with flippers.
Purchasing
Snorkeling Equipment
Again, If you are coming on the Royal Hawaiian
Catamaran snorkeling tours we supply free snorkeling gear
for average size adults and children. If you wish to purchase
snorkel gear there is a myriad of gear styles and qualities
available. You can purchase a set of U. S. Divers Snorkeling
Gear or other major brands for around $50 at many department
and big box retail stores for a reasonable price or you
can go to a dive shop and spent hundreds of dollars for
top of the line snorkeling/scuba equipment. Snorkel
Bob's is a great place to purchase or rent high quality
snorkeling gear in the $150 range. Rental start from $9/week
for a basic set to $44/week with an Rx prescription mask.
They have been in the business for years and are well known
and respected. For beginners I recommend not spending to
much until you have more experience and a better idea of
what you want and how and if you will use it. For small
children who wish to snorkel I recommend buying a basic
child's snorkel setup. They are inexpensive and will fit
better.
