If you are not comfortable with swimming DO NOT listen to this guy. I went to Cancun and actually did a snorkel tour with my fiance with this company Total Snorkel Cancun. We almost drowned. The guy in the video was actually there before we left on our boat and was making jokes about how the sea was rough that day and it's not gonna be fun etc. My fiance and I wanted to use life jackets instead of the alternative they offer which are ones you can blow up yourself if you want, but the tour guide dissuaded us from doing so because he said it's "not as fun" with the safer vest. Overall, If you are not able to swim, then I DO NOT recommend snorkeling. If you still do, PLEASE use the normal life vests that are already blown up/puffy and don't need to be inflated.

Not sure why this popped up, but I will say that my wife is a nonswimmer and I took her snorkeling in various places in the Philippines, she had a blast.

[@robypaul202]

What type of flotation device did she use? Any recommendations? I've seen flotation belts and vests.

Snorkeling gear is an equalizer, but the thing is, sometimes the unexpected happens. You lose a fin, your snorkel leaks, ocean conditions turn bad, you get stuck in a current, etc. The better a swimmer you are the more capable you are able to handle the unexpected.

I went snorkeling for the first time in Bahamas - I freaked out a little seeing how deep the water was and the fish scared me. I don't know what happened! I was so looking forward to going and then I was there and freaked. Any ideas?
