    Snorkel - https://www.swimoutlet.com/products/ylon-a-ysti-swim-snorkel-by-cordio2-41244/?color=navy

    - If you buy another snorkel, it must not have attached goggles

     

    Fins - https://www.swimoutlet.com/products/speedo-short-blade-training-swim-fins-42699/?color=multi

    - If you don’t get these fins, still do get short bladed fins. Fins with long blades place too much restrictive load on swimmers' ankles and prevent them from kicking normally
