Snorkeling in Thailand

  Thailand is an amazing place to snorkel and scuba dive. A few days ago my mom and I went snorkeling while my dad went scuba diving.

This would allow me to grab onto something while practicing recovering my regulator, breathing and getting water out of my mask. After practising a few times we slowly went down 11.2m while equalizing our ears every meter. Due to pressure change as you descend into the water, you need to equalize your ears so they don’t hurt The islands that I dove at were the same that I had snorkeled at so I was familiar with the area.  I did two dives that lasted 40 minutes each. For each dive  I re...
