Ko Tao hire snorkelling gear?
Posted: Sat June 20, 2009 12:09 PM UTC
Hi
I want to know whether I should bring my own gear from home or is it cheap enough to hire. We have 8 days on Koh Tao in mid July, 2009 and I plan to snorkel every day
thanks

Take your own mask and snorkel. Travel light as you will undoubtably return home with more clothing than you left with.

Hi
Thanks for your reply. I'll do that - what about flippers (fins)? Are they too heavy?
cheers

No need to bring flippers. Most places will provide both mask/snorkel and flippers for day use if you join their tour. You can rent too. If you have wear corrective glasses, then bring your own "power" mask or bring your disposal contact lenses.

We went to Phuket last April and took our own snorkelling gear, it was much nicer to use your own stuff. Am going back next month and will take it again. Have a great holiday!
