Snorkel equipment at Castaway Cay

Has anyone ever rented only the fins and a vest at castaway cay? And if so, what was the price?

thanks,

Dorina

No charge on the vest. I don't know about fin price but I brought my own mask and one of the pins broke, they couldn't find a replacement pin for me, so Disney let me borrow one of theirs for free.

Direct from the DCL website: You have to rent the whole kit and caboodle....They wont rent individual pieces.

Immerse yourself in an exciting snorkel adventure for the entire family — perfect for beginners and experts alike! Make your way to Gils' Fins and Boats and receive your snorkel gear and instruction and then venture to a picturesque lagoon section of the island, located at Castaway's Family Beach.

Once there, make a splash among the tropical fish and fantastic marine life of the Caribbean. The snorkel lagoon offers 22 acres to explore, including a beginner and discoverer snorkel trail. Be sure to keep your eye out for some underwater hidden surprises as you snorkel further out into the lagoon.

Go in and out of the lagoon as much as you like before returning your equipment to Gils' Fins and Boats at the end of the day.

Additional Information

Children under the age of 13 must be accompanied by an adult 18 or older.

Snorkel vests are included and are compulsory while snorkeling in the lagoon.

Equipment rental is for all-day and can be picked up from Gils Fins and Boats at Guest's leisure. It can be returned to the same location when you have finished with your equipment.

I was just there last week. The vests are free for any one who may need one. They are hanging in or near any of the lifguard stations, and also near the entrance to the snorkel lagoon.All youd have to do is grab one as you walk by. They do this for those of us (like me)who bring our own snorkel gear.

As far as the fins are concerned, I am not sure, but if you go to the window on the island and ask, I am reasonably sure that someone would hand them to you if thats all you need. Get the vest first or on the way out of Gills though.

We bought some nice snorkeling kits (Body Glove) at Costco a few years ago for about $30. They came in their own bags that sling across your back kind of like a back pack (but with only one strap). We take these with us on every vacation, it has saved us a ton of money on renting gear and we can snorkel any time at our leisure.

We got vest and fins. I believe we paid $15.
