Snorkel Trips: Visit Australia’s Great Barrier Reef!

Many people prefer snorkel trips when compared to scuba diving trips because snorkeling is considered to be more laid back than diving. Plus, snorkeling requires less training and a lower skill set than most diving excursions.

Nonetheless, the best snorkeling trips still provide an incredible adventure to view marine life. There are many great snorkeling vacation destinations around the world!

Snorkel trips are great because they allow you to observe underwater life for a prolonged period of time, and snorkeling requires little equipment and little training. Snorkeling allows you to experience nature without needing heavy equipment necessary for scuba diving.

While snorkeling you can observe marine life just below the water’s surface, providing first hand encounters with marine inhabitants. Although you can snorkel in any body of water, snorkeling vacation destinations deliver great adventures for exploring sea life that few get to see.

The best snorkel trips can be found around the world, but one of the top destinations is the Great Barrier Reef.

Snorkelers often favour snorkeling trips that have a sea level of one to four meters. You can visit deeper reefs; however, diving depths are limited.

No matter your preferred diving depth, snorkeling can give you a certain freedom that scuba diving doesn’t necessarily offer.

Not only can you observe and explore coral reefs and its inhabitants, but you can also see wreckage’s, caves and so much more while on the best snorkel trips. Snorkel trips are great to take by yourself or with the whole family, as even children are able to snorkel.

In some cases, you don’t even need to know how to swim.

Next, see our How to snorkel pages for tips on how to have the best snorkel experiences.

Liveaboard snorkel trips offer something for the whole family if you’re short of time, a day tour might be more suitable for celebrating a special event. see our VIP Snorkel Tours
