Do I need to be able to swim?

You should be a comfortable swimmer, though a buoyancy aid or float can help. Beginner trips stay in calm, shallow water.

Yes, with sensible precautions. Snorkel with a buddy, stay aware of currents, and guided trips keep you in suitable spots.

Do I need my own gear?

No. Mask, snorkel and fins are provided. A wetsuit helps in cooler water and is often included.

Do I need experience?

None. A few minutes of practice with the mask and snorkel and you are away. It is one of the easiest activities to start.

In cool water a wetsuit keeps you comfortable. In warm seas you can often snorkel for hours.

Snorkelling in Eastern Taurus Foothills

Snorkelling is about as simple as adventure gets, and that is its charm. A mask, a snorkel and a pair of fins, and you can float on the surface watching fish, reefs and the seabed slide past below you. No tanks, no training, no fuss, just you and the underwater world.

It suits everyone from small children to grandparents, and it is often the gateway that gets people curious about diving and freediving. Guided snorkel trips take you to the best spots and point out what you are looking at.

The operators on adventuro run snorkel sessions and guided trips with the gear provided. Pop your face in the water and the show starts straight away.
