Another part of preparing for your snorkeling trip is to calm your nerves. It is scary to go snorkeling for the first time, since many people wonder whether they will be able to breathe with the snorkel on. This sense of panic is exactly what causes problems, though, so you'll want to do some work to calm your fears before you go out for your snorkeling trip.

There are a couple of things that you should bring on our snorkeling trip. The first is sunscreen. Even if the day is foggy and you don't think that you will need sunscreen, it is a good idea to use it. You will be floating in the water for the whole day with the sun beating down on you. Not only that, but the water makes it easier to burn. So, you will want to have some sunscreen on hand.
