Masks are your window on the underwater world. The most important factor with masks is that they feel comfortable to wear, that they fit and seal well around your face and that you have good vision through them. Another factor important for those who wear glasses or contact lenses is whether or not the mask can be fitted with corrective lenses.

A good snorkel certainly needs to have a purge valve at the bottom. This aids clearance of the snorkel and will make snorkelling a much more pleasurable and easy experience. It is also good if it has a wave deflector or chamber mechanism at the top which will help to prevent wave splashes entering the snorkel too readily.

For snorkelling you will need full foot fins rather than adjustable fins which need to be worn with boots.

A snorkelling vest allows you rest whilst in the water. Just orally inflate the vest and it will hold you in a head up position in the water. (Please note this is not a life jacket)

The Simply Scuba snorkelling bag and mask bag offer good protection for all your new snorkelling gear. The mask bag fits into the mask pocket on the snorkelling bag which has space for the snorkel and fins too. The snorkelling bag also has a mobile phone holder on the strap and an inside pocket for keys and other valuables.

We offer a range of disposable and reuseable cameras to suit all budgets. Many of the cameras can be used on land as well as in the water.

We have books to cover almost all areas of snorkelling from instructional manuals to waterproof fish identification slates (quicklink 1339) and books which help you to snorkel in the right places and identify what you see. Check out the accessories department on the website.
