Cressi Adult Wide View Comfortable Snorkeling Mask & Snorkel | Onda & Mexico: made in Italy

Excellent quality mask and snorkel for the money. Used several times on our last cruise. Good seal. No leaking on mask. Snorkel fits comfortably in my mouth. Will probably buy another set for my teenage daughter.

Old fashion mask and snorkel

EXCELLENT!!!!!

I just got back from 8 days in Maui and used these goggles for half of the trip, but ultimately ended up going reverting back to my old snorkel and mask set.First off, the mask is quite comfortable easy to put on and adjust size, so I could try it on myself and my wife. Both of us came to the same conclusions on the negatives. Another benefit beyond comfort and ease of adjustment is that viewing area is quite large and the blue border is mostly unobtrusive. Finally, the snorkel is easy to attached to the side of the mask and to adjust its location and orientation so that the mouthpiece rests comfortably in the mouth.However, ultimately, I ended up not really liking this snorkel and mask. The main problem is that the snorkel mouthpiece slips off from the snorkel easily. This happened to my wife a couple times and she ended up breathing in a mouthful of water as the flexible mouthpiece portion just fell off the firm snorkel piece. Also, for both my wife and me these were more prone to leaking than our other masks that we have had for years, which meant that our no-fog liquid washed away as we had to empty the masks, and then they fogged up horribly. Finally, you should know that the snorkel does not seal when you dive. This is a benefit for me, as I find that the auto-sealing mechanisms are more trouble than they are worth, just breath out a small breath as you surface to evacuate the snorkel, but still for my wife who was used to a self-sealing snorkel, this was a problem. I am not taking any "points" off for this since it is advertised, but just want you to be aware. Mostly, the issue with the leaking and the snorkel coming apart inadvertently make this a 2-3 star product for me. Maybe it'll work better for you, but if you opt to buy it make sure it is returnable, just in case.

Cressi offers a huge abundance of quality snorkeling gear to choose from. Some come with their own case. This set does not. The set comes in a plastic container, which you can use for storage if you wish.This set is Made in Italy. The mask is silicone, with a tempered glass lens. This makes it very comfortable. Of course the strap is adjustable. The section which fits around the back of your head is double-wide for extra security and comfort. Once you have it adjusted to your liking, this mask offers “buckles” for easy on/off. For the current price, it’s a very good buy.

For those who have read my scuba dive mask and snorkel reviews, know I am very big on Cressi products.And when it comes to dive masks, Cressi, which is made in Italy, are one of the best makers of dive masks.The Cressi Onda is a basic set and features 100% silicon skirt with tempered glass lenses. While Cressi masks tend to be simple and adjustable with their buckle system.It's important to note that the face mask will fog, so you will need a defogger such as McNett Sea Drops Scuba and Snorkeling Mask Defog - 2-Pack.The snorkel features a splash top to reduce water entry, which will be fine for beginners. Easy to attach to the goggles but as basic as this set is, I recommend the Cressi Palau Mask Fin Snorkel Set with Snorkeling Gear Bag, YL-ML or Palau SAF Set, blue, M/L as you get the fins with the extra $20+ and a snorkel with an anti-spash end. And if you want a better fin, then you'll want to check these out -> Cressi Frog Plus Fin Focus Silicone Mask Dry Snorkel Set - BK-ML.This is a really good basic scuba diving set but Cressi makes better and I would rather go a bit better for comfort and reliability with their other products than the basic product.

I bought it because of the great reviews and also the 4.5 star rating. However, I am a little disappointed with this snorkel set when I went to snorkel at Key Largo, Miami. Perhaps my face is too small, the goggle does not seal well and water kept getting into the mask every time I get my head out of the water. I had to instantly loosen my mask to let the water out every time I try to surface. The tube or snorkel is very hard to adjust to fit too. Even the snorkel guide complained about how hard it is to attach my snorkel to the goggle. I am a beginner snorkeler and I did not have a good time using this set.

I really like the ability to easily adjust the strap that goes from the sides of the mask around the back of your head. The little tab, marked with the name Cressi, on both sides of the mask, is easy to pull up to allow for exact fitting of the strap. When released the tab securely drops back into place and grips the raised ribs on the strap. Just make sure you adjust both sides evenly or the strap won't properly center on the back of your head.To me the mask fits well and snugly, and makes a good watertight seal all the way around the face mask.The clip that attaches the snorkel to the mask strap has is also adjustable up and down the snorkel, so it is easy to position the snorkel to a custom fit. The hard plastic topper, on the snorkel, is curved and is of a decent design which prevents unwanted water from entering the top of the snorkel. But, since there is no device to close top of the snorkel, as some snorkels are designed, you can get water into this snorkel. That would be my only complaint for this combination mask/snorkel unit.For scuba diving, where one is not using the snorkel, this mask is perfect.As a side note, for those of you that wear eye glasses, this mask will not accommodate them. Or, at least it would not accommodate mine.
