No, we do not allow anyone who does not know how to swim to get into the water. Where we are snorkeling, we’re typically going to be in water over 10-feet deep. You will not be able to stand up (which we wouldn’t want you to stand on reef anyway), which makes it very dangerous for someone who does not know how to swim. We are snorkeling in the open ocean with real currents and ever-changing conditions, it’s not the place to learn to swim.
