Not sure I quite understand your question, but on any boat I have ever been on, it's fine to dive without a snorkel. I think it's pretty much only required in some classes and such.
As far as it feeling like a straw, I'd try a new snorkel. I find snorkels very easy to breathe through. I enjoy snorkelling as much as diving, and in some destinations, especially when shore diving in clear water, I like to use a snorkel for the surface swim.
Have fun in South America!
