Cost to Rent Snorkelling Equipment?

[Leo Jay]

Can someone tell me how much it costs to rent snorkeling equipment on Tortola? We're probably going to end up going to Brewer's Bay. I'm a little put off the idea of putting a rented snorkel in my mouth, so I'll probably buy at least that piece, but I saw a cheap set online for about $30, so depending on the rental cost, it might be worth buying the full set vs. renting. On the other hand, I don't even swim, so I don't think I'd even need the flippers included in the set. Just trying to figure out what makes more sense cost-wise. Thanks.

I would guess about $5 for mask and snorkel and about $10 -$12 including flippers and snorkel vest.

 

Here is a list of dive shops/guides, many with websites you could probably contact for more specifics and/or recommendations:

I think you might reconsider about not using flippers, especially as a non swimmer. I did this once and will never do it again. Should you get caught in any kind of current flippers will make it much easier to get around.
