i wouldn't worry about that. you shouldn't really be snorkeling in deep water anyways where sharks are present.

Sharks can pick up on a drop of blood from 1/4 mile away. Ask your instructor if you will be anywhere in the vicinity of sharks. Barracuda are night feeders, so no problem. The other fish you might encounter shouldn't be a problem, but I would double check about sharks in the area. For those who just say to make certain you have a clean tampon, it will not necessarily be that clean after twenty minutes in the water.

You *should* be okay if you're wearing a tampon. Be sure to change it shortly before beginning. If you are planning on snorkeling in an area heavily populated with sharks, ask the advice of your snorkel instructor.

you can still swim or whatever you want to do on your period when swimming just where a tampon or if you don't wear them you probably can put a pad on make sure you change your pad right before you go swimming and right after you go swimming and i say if you on your period don't go by sharkes because blood attract sharks

Yes, you can snorkel while you're on your period. Just make sure that you change your tampon shortly before going in, and that it will last the entire time you plan to be out swimming. Have fun!

Yeah, watch out for the sharks and don't go hiking in the woods where grizzlies are

I wouldn't do it. However, if you have on a wetsuit maybe the sharks won't smell the blood.
