Overview The Sherwood Cai Semi-Dry Snorkel is designed to provide comfortable, efficient breathing while helping reduce water entry from waves, wind, and surface splash. Its newly developed semi-dry shield helps block splashing from entering the snorkel tube while maintaining an open breathing design. A large-bore tube supports high airflow, while the deep base receptacle helps collect water away from the primary breathing path. The Cai also comes standard with Sherwood&';s EZ Bite Mouthpiece for comfortable use during snorkeling and surface swimming.
