Snorkeling
Take a break from the tropical July heat and dip into the cool waters of the sea. While you're at it, take the time to look down at the wonders local coral reefs offer. Dabaisha, Matijiao, Green Island, and Longdong Bay are good snorkeling locations close to home. If you're really adventurous, consider scuba diving. The north and northeast coasts offer the chance to see turtles and brilliantly colored reef fishes.
Swimsuits: Whether you're looking for a long, baggy pair of surfing-style board shorts, a one-piece racing style-suit, or a revealing bikini, we offer many popular brands and styles at incredible discounts.
Wetsuits: Even though Taiwan is surrounded by warm seas, a thin neoprene wetsuit can help you maintain a comfortable body temperature and will protect your skin from abrasions and the sun's rays. Also, a wetsuit can streamline your profile for fluid movement through the water.
Snorkeling Gear: The basic gear package required for snorkeling consists of four elements: a dive mask, a snorkel, fins, and neoprene booties. In warmer waters, booties are optional and regular slip-on fins can be used instead. For scuba diving, only a top-quality mask and adjustable fins should be used. Additionally, remember to buy a mesh bag or other large bag that will drain water and dry quickly to carry your snorkeling gear around in.
Personal Flotation Devices: A PFD (personal flotation device), also known as a "life jacket", is a valuable piece of equipment for those unfamiliar to snorkeling or who are not strong swimmers. Consider your personal ability when deciding if you require a PFD for snorkeling. PFDs are rated to offer effective buoyancy for different body sizes, and are made for specific types of activities. Remember: Children should always wear a PFD when snorkeling!
