A great way to observe and interact with the aquatic life is through snorkelling. Swimming among the vibrant fish and rock formations can be hours of fun for the whole family.
Davos Tackle Online offers a variety of snorkels and it's critical to understand how the various Australian snorkel styles differ from one another.
Simple snorkels consist of a tube that extends from your mouth to the surface and let you breathe while your face is submerged in water. Purge valve-equipped snorkels offer a way to clean your snorkel without fully surfacing.
Dry-tip and purge snorkels are generally avoided by Spearos as they can hold bubbles which will scare fish as you descend, they don't like bubbles.
Flexible, collapsible snorkels are prefered because they won't break or shatter when stepped on. Perfect for those crowded boats where everything ends up all over the place.
Some snorkels have a flexible piece that extends from the mouthpiece. Divers benefit from these flex tube snorkels because they allow the snorkel to hang besides your face while you dive rather than in front of it!
