Snorkeling equipment

When reserving one of our expeditions, you have the choice to include the equipment package. This package includes a dry suit, hood, mask, snorkel, fins, gloves, weight belt, and aquafloat.

The aquafloat is a highly insulated one-piece suit available to you throughout the entire trip. If you do not have down pants, the aquafloat serves as an excellent option to stay warm. Feel free to use the aquafloat while observing orcas from the boat deck or exploring the surrounding areas when the boat is docked in the harbor. However, we recommend bringing a winter jacket, especially for your time in Alta city before and after the expedition.
