How To Snorkel

Hi, I am Howard Payne. I am instructor with Dive Wimbledon, we're a five star IDC center here in Southwest London and I teach both recreation and technical diving. I have been diving for eight years.

And today, I'm going to give you an advice about the equipment and also how to scuba dive. First, we have to familiar about how to snorkel and exactly hold the mask and on you can see snorkel glass on the left hand side of the mask, because as we start to go further we are getting into diving and the rid will come around on the right hand side so we need the snorkel on the left hand side, you can see there is a little bent at the top which the way from splashing down, the snorkel tubes itself and most good snorkels got a little valve at the bottom here which when you blow out hardly clears out at the bottom in the snorkel. You want to put that on Jack and show them how it works, okay.

You can see here, just the snorkel valve is comfortable and the mouth piece fits in to the mouth and you see he is breathing in and out, and if the surface is here and if the waves. And should we take that out from the mouth and then we put it back in again, you need to blow hard just to clear the excess water out of the cheek and there we go. So this is just the few tips, when you snorkel, obviously make sure that you don't touch any coral or the fish jells in the marine life, because some of them are poisonous and generally the more beautiful it is, the more that you get stung.

Just remember to keep breathing normally and also make sure that you have got a Rexene or some people like to wear a little life jacket. So just a few things better in mind when you are snorkelling like Lack. .
