My brother used to live in Florida and did a lot of snorkeling, not nearly like diving but he sure enjoyed it.

I think snorkeling is a lot like diving only on the surface and a short way below.
Usually the objective is the same: see pretty fish and other marine life. I admit however, I see more when I can get amongst them.
During the night the fish often go to sleep. That is why the humphead banner fish I saw last night was drifting at an angle through the water. I also was able to stroke the dorsal fin of a moorish idol, too. That is weird as you usually can't get close to them.

(I also saw a shrimp and a pipefish.)
