Hello, all! I have a sun hypersensitivity and need to get some sun-protective bottoms that cover my legs for when I'm snorkeling/surfing, but I'm have trouble finding any.
My go-to places for long-sleeve swim tops (L.L. Bean and Lands End, but I've checked a few other places as well) don't carry pants. Does anyone have any suggestions for where to look?
Thank you for your help!!
Just saw a Dugong while snorkeling in Indonesia.

Hi guys, write this post here because the use I will make of it will be mainly for snorkeling, since now they are both on sale at €199 for the same price, which one do you think is better to take? Or is there anything better at this price? Thank you and those who have had experiences with this device and will help me.
Hello! I am thinking to plan a trip to Roatan that might end up being just me and my 2 year old. He loves and is very comfortable around water. Has anyone tried snorkeling with a baby in an inner tube on a tether?
I’ve read Roatan has great snorkeling right from the shore so in my mind and in theory it seems like it might work very nicely, but I’m wondering about practical experience.

There are no shops around me for me to try them on so I’ve been trying to find brands on Amazon because Amazon makes returns easy. Today I got the scubapro synergy trufit 2 and it’s not a good fit. I think my face is too wide, I have a very large face. It’s leaking on the sides of my face. So what can I try next
These guys are so curious. There was hundreds where I was snorkeling in the beautiful Bahamas.

Very curious ! He was all by himself with his anemone, he reminded me of Nemo’s dad :( I didn’t want to scare him so I left him alone
My 5 year old daughter is very active and likes trying new things. My mom bought her a cheesy snorkel and mask from the dollar store. She loved it and couldn’t wait to try it! The community pool had goggles she loved wearing already, so she tried the snorkel. She’d sit on the steps and hold her nose with her snorkel on and test it out. Within 20 minutes she was successfully using the snorkel, holding her nose with the goggles on and swimming under the water perfectly… I don’t know how, but she did. She’d stay under for a while. I bought her a better snorkel kit from Amazon and she went in the pool today with her dad who also has a snorkel (I do not snorkel and I’ve always had a hard time with it!) She can go under the water with her snorkel and no water will get in… but just overall asking for advice if there is anything I need to be aware of with her. She seems like a pro already to be but she’s only 5!
