Adult Dry Snorkel – Splash Guard Snorkel with Top Dry Valve for Easy Breathing, Leak Protection, Freediving and Recreational Snorkeling

Breathe easy at the surface, with nothing hanging off your mask

This is a front snorkel: a flattened U of white tube that arcs over the top of your head, held on by its own flat perforated strap and a ratchet buckle. The mouthpiece comes down to your mouth at the front and the two open tips stand up above the back of your head.

Nothing clips to your mask, so the tube keeps clear of your mask strap and the seal, and stays where you put it when you turn your head. The two intakes sit higher and further back than a side tube beside your ear, which is where most surface chop finds you.

Pick it for swimming lengths, floating face down over a reef or lazing in a bay: anywhere you want your face in the water and your breathing easy.

A splash guard that keeps chop out of your breath

Over the intake sits a molded housing with a fine honeycomb of small holes. It is a splash guard: it breaks up water thrown at the opening by small waves, by your own wake and by whoever is kicking past you, and keeps a good deal of it out of the tube.

That is leak protection where you feel it, in a drier breath and a calmer swim. If a wave does top the guard, a short puff through the tube clears it and you carry on.

Getting it on and getting it right

The strap is a flat length of perforated silicone running between the two arms, with a black ratchet buckle on it. Set it once, on dry land, with the arms sitting along the sides of your head above your ears and the mouthpiece reaching your mouth without stretching your neck.

Then put your mask on as normal. Wear whatever mask or goggles already fit you; the snorkel has its own strap.

Where it belongs

Face down at the surface, over a reef, over a seagrass bed, along a rope in a bay, up and down a lane. Anywhere you want to keep your face in the water and keep breathing without lifting your head every few strokes.

The details

Who it is for

Surface snorkelers who want a tube that stays clear of the mask strap, and lap swimmers who want to keep their head still and their face down. It pairs with the mask you already like.

Breathe easy on every swim, with your face free and the splash kept out. Add it to your cart, backed by 90-day returns.
