There are few places in the world where you get to participate in an activity that is as innovative as snuba. Key west snuba excursions are gaining a great deal of popularity, so if you plan on checking out this truly unique travel experience, make sure you book ahead! Snuba is a hybrid beneath snorkeling and diving. Key west snuba involves swimming beneath the ocean surface with swim fin, weights, a mask and a breathing apparatus that is generally used during a diving session. Unlike regular scuba diving, key west snuba diving doesn’t involve strapping an oxygen tank to your back, but instead the tanks are laid on their side on pontoon boats that bob on the surface. Unlike regular diving, you never have to worry about running out of oxygen because there is a constant flow of air through the surfaced machine. Snuba allows you to spend significantly more time perusing the under water world of Key West, without ever worrying about running out of air. If you’ve never snuba’d before, there are always crew members on hand to help you slip into your equipment, and to show you how to operate the equipment to maximize your experience. You won’t be able to explore to great depths, but there are plenty of fascinating creatures that make the ocean’s surface their home, so bring your underwater camera, because there is plenty to capture on your key west snuba excursion.
