Hi All,

Punta Cana is so beautiful, the water, beaches and people. This place is growing by leaps and bounds. It is wild to see how fast Punta Cana as a vacation destination has taken off. I guess because of the modern airport that is close by all the resorts and the reasonably priced all inclusive resorts help. But of coarse the activities are amazing here too, from the natural dolphin swim in Punta Cana, to snorkeling the reefs, horseback riding on the beach, fun boat rides in the ocean, and watersports galore. The word has spread and this has become a HOT destination.

We wrote a story about the Natural Dolphin Swim and the Snorkeling Experience in Punta Cana. If you like to read it, please  Click Here – Punta Cana Dolphin Swimming and Snorkeling.

Snorkeling or Free-Diving, which many call it, is a great water sport to get used to. It seems easy and it is once you get used to the mask and snorkel in your mouth. Once you get past that hurdle of not swallowing water all the time, you need to try holding your breath and free dive down under the water. The world record is about 300 feet under the water, pretty amazing. You will appreciate this record once you try free diving under the water only a few feet, not that easy. I have seen people free dive up to 60 feet. I still still struggle to 20 .

Here in Punta Cana you can snorkel in the Ocean and you can snorkel with the dolphins with the Natural Swim. So the better you are are with the equipment, the better time you will have. If you can, buy a mask and snorkel at your local dive shop and you can practice at your local pool, lake or ocean. You will be ready for this vacation!!

Do we have any snorkel stories out there? From beginners? From Novice? From the Experts? I would love to hear all your experiences.
God Bless,
John
