NO, water will not go up your nose when your snorkeling. They make the snorkel a special way. You are very safe!!!!

AnswerActually the snorkel has nothing to do with the nose. Your nose is safely covered by the mask, so as long as your mask is not full of water, your nose stays nice and dry.

The only chance of water going up your nose is if your mask is leaky and water collects at the bottom of the mask, right where your nose is! That is why they emphasize you get a correct-fitting mask which is easily tested (in the shop) by pressing it on your face without using the strap, suck in a bit with your nose, and see if it stays on.

In most circumstances, water up the nose is no great problem, as evidenced by the numbers of folk who go swimming. However, that comment does not apply to thermal springs (natural hot springs). Many of these harbour organisms that could enter your body through the soft lining of the nose. In New Zealand, such a practice is positively discouraged, and I imagine that a similar cautious approach is advised in many other thermal areas.

How to swim underwater without holding your nose?

This is the easiest way to not hold your nose underwater. When you go underwater, blow bubbles out of your nose. This will prevent the water from entering your nose. Just blow bubbles out of your nose frequently and no water will get up your nose.
