Be aware that the deep water snorkels require that you're a good swimmer---they don't allow float vests on those excursions. My 20 something kids (along with most everyone else) got beaten up on one of the deep water snorkels because the water was so rough - the zodiacs picked up everyone and moved to a calmer location. I'm very cold-blooded but the short wetsuit was fine once you get in the water. We DID take our own one-way snorkels and were very glad we did - the water is definitely rougher than the Caribbean and we hate saltwater! Also be aware that Celebrity limits the amount of luggage you can take on the flight to Baltra, so taking your own wetsuits might seriously limit your other clothes and things--TAKE A GOOD UNDERWATER CAMERA WHICH ALSO TAKES VIDEO

We did the 7 day Inner Loop itinerary and there were very few people who 'dressed for dinner". These are expedition ships and you're limited on the amount of luggage you can take on the plane - so nobody wore anything more dressy than colored shirts and khakis for men and a sun dress or capris for women. Most people wore the same type of clothing for the entire cruise. Hope this helps-
