Skin diving, or snorkeling.
Improved answer
This is probably 'free diving' a sport in which people dive without the aid of Scuba equipment, people experienced at this often dive to great depths for extended periods of time holding their breath for several minutes.
A matter of temperatureThe purpose of the mask and snorkel is to get you breathing while facing/looking downwards. This can be done in warm water without the need for a wetsuit. But if the water is cold, or you are going to snorkel for long periods of time, a neoprene wetsuit (approx. 5mm thick) or a neoprene shirt (1mm or less) is needed. However, the neoprene gives you buoyancy, and if you intend to dive deep, it will not help.Wiki User
