Snorkels & Snorkeling Sets
Whether you're exploring a tropical reef, enjoying a family holiday or preparing for your next scuba diving adventure, a comfortable, reliable snorkel can make your time at the surface much more enjoyable.
At Sussex Diving, we offer a carefully selected range of snorkels and mask-and-snorkel sets suitable for recreational snorkelling, scuba diving and swimming.
From simple, traditional snorkels to designs incorporating splash protection, purge valves and flexible mouthpieces, there's a range of options to suit different preferences and activities.
Choosing the Right Snorkel
Traditional snorkels feature a straightforward open tube design. They're simple, lightweight and easy to maintain, making them popular with divers who prefer uncomplicated equipment.
Semi-dry snorkels incorporate splash guards designed to reduce the amount of water entering the tube from waves and surface splashes. They're a popular choice for recreational snorkelling and scuba diving.
Dry-top snorkels use a floating valve mechanism designed to close the snorkel opening when submerged, helping to prevent water entering the tube. Although convenient, they are not completely watertight in every situation.
Some snorkels also incorporate purge valves to make clearing water easier, along with flexible silicone mouthpieces for improved comfort.
Mask & Snorkel Sets
Mask-and-snorkel sets offer a convenient way to purchase matching equipment, making them particularly popular with holidaymakers, families and those new to snorkelling.
However, a good mask fit is just as important as choosing the right snorkel. A poorly fitting mask can allow water to enter, reducing comfort and enjoyment.
We recommend choosing a mask that seals comfortably against your face without excessive strap tension. Different designs suit different face shapes, so trying a mask before purchasing is always worthwhile.
Don't choose snorkelling equipment based on appearance alone. A comfortable mouthpiece, suitable snorkel design and correctly fitting mask can make a significant difference. Visit our dive centre in Selsey for friendly advice on choosing suitable equipment.
