At OnBird, we believe that bringing guests closer to the vibrant beauty of Phu Quoc’s underwater world requires more than just a well-curated itinerary. It demands meticulous attention to every detail — especially the snorkeling gear. High-quality equipment plays a crucial role in ensuring both your comfort and safety in the water.
Let’s take a closer look at the standard snorkeling equipment you’ll be outfitted with when joining a tour with OnBird:
1. Anti-Fog Snorkel Mask

  • Ergonomically designed to create a watertight seal on the face. 
  • Anti-fog coating maintains clear vision underwater for longer durations. 
  • Available in multiple sizes for both adults and children. 
  • Prescription lenses ranging from -2.0 to -10.0 diopters are available upon request — simply let us know in advance.

2. Snorkels

2.1. Dry Snorkel

  • Ideal for beginners and less experienced snorkelers. 
  • Features a full dry-top valve that prevents water from entering the snorkel even in waves or while duck diving. 
  • Easy and safe to use — even for children and first-timers.

2.2. Semi-Dry Snorkel by Gull Canal Japan

  • Unlike dry snorkels that completely seal when submerged, the Gull Canal Dry SP semi-dry snorkel is designed for a more natural and flexible snorkeling experience. 
  • Equipped with a splash-guard at the top to minimize water intrusion from waves or surface movement. 
  • Allows a small amount of water to enter when diving deeper — enabling you to develop more realistic reflexes like a seasoned snorkeler. 
  • Ideal for those with prior snorkeling experience or anyone seeking a more immersive interaction with the ocean environment.

3. Rash Guard & Wetsuit

  • High-quality fabric with UPF 50+ sun protection, also helps minimize scratches from contact with coral or rocks. 
  • Retains body heat during extended sessions and prevents sudden chills when entering seawater. 
  • Offers essential protection against jellyfish — especially important during jellyfish season (late November to mid-December). 
  • OnBird provides wetsuits for both adults and children (ages 4 and up), particularly recommended during the cooler months (25–26°C water temperatures from November to February). 
  • Wetsuits are available for rent at a reasonable fee — please contact us in advance for assistance. 
Rash Guard + Fin
Rash guard helps protect snorkelers from harmful UV rays and prevents scratches.

4. Snorkeling Fins

  • OnBird uses specialized snorkeling fins that are lightweight and buoyant to enhance safety in open water. 
  • Features open-heel design for easy fitting and flexible sizing — suitable for both children and adults.

5. Marker Buoy & Life Vest

  • OnBird employs a comprehensive group-safety protocol using marker buoys to help identify groups, alert boats from afar, and maintain safety across all open-water sessions. 
  • Life vests are always available for non-swimmers or those seeking additional buoyancy and reassurance.

Life vests are always available for beginners or non-swimmers who need extra safety support.
