A snorkel is a thing people sometimes use when they swim. It is a curved tube that you can hold in your mouth while keeping the other end of the tube above the water. A snorkel lets you breathe while keeping your face in the water. If you accidentally swim a little too deep, a simple device stops water from getting into the breathing tube.
People often use a snorkel when they want to see fish in the water where they are swimming.
