crAZytwinmomma Posted September 8, 2012 #1 Share Posted September 8, 2012 A friend is letting me borrow her underwater camera. It has a depth of 5 feet. We plan to snorkel in Puerto Vallarta with the excursion las Caletas, I know you *can* stay at the surface but I am wondering is that pretty much what everyone does? I don't want to bring the camera if I will miss out on seeing anything just to stay w/in 5 ft of surface to protect the camera. Also, I am very new to snorkeling, having never been, I got my kids a nice youth snorkel and mask that is "dry" and now I am wondering what the adult snorkel is like that they provide (semi-dry, dry or not even that-surface only?). My hubby and I just planned to use the gear they have. My girls just need to use the fins since we didn't buy them those. Thanks!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I typically stay on the surface and noticed most others doing that when I was in Las Caletas or other snorkeling trips in PV. I don't know what the category of mask would be called in Las Caletas because I have only stayed on the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted September 15, 2012 #3 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Might want to ask the equipment question on the Scuba and Snorkel board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
