The global snorkeling equipment market size reached US$ 2.4 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 3.5 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.45% during 2024-2032. Considerable rise in the popularity of water sports across the globe, increasing preference for outpatient stay due to its lower costs and convenience, and increasing health consciousness represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Snorkeling is a water activity that resembles swimming in a convenient and safer way by using professional safety equipment to breathe underwater. Since snorkeling involves swimming on the surface of the water with the head and nose inside the water, it needs lesser equipment as compared to scuba diving. Some of the most important pieces of snorkeling equipment include a curved plastic tube called snorkel, a mask fitted to the face and nasal cavity, and diving fins. Among some of the prominent features of the snorkel set are the tempered glass lens mask and adjustable buckles that make swimming safer and more enjoyable. The snorkeler floats on the surface of the water, wearing a mask to see the underwater world, a snorkel to breathe from the water's surface, and fins for propulsion. Snorkeling with proper equipment provides a wide variety of health benefits, including improved lungs and breath control, and strengthened vital muscles.

Snorkeling Equipment Market Trends:
A considerable rise in the popularity of water sports across the globe is a significant factor driving the growth of the snorkeling equipment market. This can be attributed to the shifting preference of millennial consumers toward coastal adventure activities. In line with this, the increasing international tourist arrivals, particularly in the tropical regions, are providing an impetus to the market. Moreover, continual technological improvements in the manufacturing of snorkeling equipment, such as pivot-dry technology to manufacture, to introduce adjustable fin straps and comfortable foot pocket are propelling the market. Additionally, the widespread popularity of regional championships continues to grow, due to which snorkeling camps are being established to attract tourists, which, in turn, is fueling the market. However, a significant rise in global temperatures, pollution, global warming and climate change are adversely affecting the market. On the contrary, the expansion of supply chain and distribution network in new regions is creating lucrative growth opportunities in the market. The market is further propelled by numerous partnerships, merger and acquisitions (M&As), and research and development (R&D) activities conducted by the ley players. Some of the other factors contributing to the market include continual up-gradation of products and new launches, international tourism expenditure, the introduction of pocket-friendly snorkeling activities, and inflating disposable income levels.
