I purchased this set for the shorter fins. We do a lot of snorkeling and I wanted something that is easy to carry in a floating bag. They fit better in my suitcase also.The fins are great. They are lighter than my long fins. They fit wide which works out great, I’m able to wear my water shoes inside so when we are entering or exiting the water my feet are protected.I’m really liking the panoramic view snorkel mask. I don’t seem to need it to be as tight fitting as my other mask which makes it easier to put on and take off with out pulling my hair out.I’m on the fence with the snorkel. I do like the clip to attach it to the mask.I haven’t been using the gear bag as I use a floating back pack. The gear bag is mesh on one side and clear plastic on the other side. I will probable just use it for storage.

The snorkel mask pressed my forehead too much.

Our family took a trip to the bahamas for 10 days, and we all got a set of these snorkeling kits (same model- different colors). They worked GREAT! We had never snorkeled before, so it took a few tries to get them adjusted correctly and figure out how to wear/use the gear, but once we did, we loved them! I spent HOURS in the water and never had a problem with these, other than the occasional mask fog-up (but I've never worn a pair of goggles or mask that didn't do that, so it wasn't a big deal). I was able to dive down to search for shells without water filling up the breathing tube, the fins stayed secure the entire time, and everything was easy to adjust while in the water. We even went on a snorkeling tour and ended up using these kits because they were higher quality than what the guide was offering. Overall, these were well worth the money we spent on them for our trip!

I made a last-minute purchase of the Mask Fin Snorkel Set before our trip to Hawaii, and it was the right decision for our trip.First off, the convenience of packing these in a large suitcase alongside our carry-ons was a breeze (we bought 5 sets, thus the larger suitcase). They're compact and lightweight, leaving us with plenty of room for souvenirs. Having our own gear everywhere we went meant no more repeated rentals, saving us both time and money.The set held up beautifully during our Hawaiian escapade, and we were thrilled to have them on hand for spontaneous snorkeling opportunities. It was like having our personal window to the underwater world, and we made the most of it!The sea life we encountered, including mesmerizing sea turtles, made the experience truly unforgettable. The clarity of the mask and the efficiency of the snorkel and fins enhanced our underwater exploration, allowing us to focus on the breathtaking marine scenes.One valuable tip: Make sure to rinse everything with fresh water after each use. It's a small effort that goes a long way in preserving the set for multiple trips. Proper care has kept ours in excellent condition, and we're looking forward to more underwater adventures in the future.In conclusion, if you're gearing up for a snorkeling adventure, the Mask Fin Snorkel Set is a fantastic investment. It made our Hawaiian trip extra special, and now we have them ready for upcoming adventures. Dive in and discover the wonders beneath the surface with this reliable and convenient snorkel set!

This is a great set if you're looking to try snorkeling, or just want to have a set to take on vacation without having to rent stuff when you get there. It's lightweight and comes in a convenient drawstring bag.The snorkel itself is legit and works wonderfully, even when diving. The shutoff valve prevented leaks and the blowout valve let me clear any water that did happen to splash into the top of the snorkel. The fins are fine and fit as expected. I wear US size 13 shoes and had no issues. The mask is better than you'd expect and worked well for everyone except me. I have a beard and had issues with the mask not wanting to seal under my nose, even though I shaved the hair back to allow for skin contact. It left me with a very slow steady leak which was manageable, but it's just something to keep in mind. I discovered that I love snorkeling, so I'll be upgrading my mask to a dive mask with a better seal but I'll continue using the rest of the set.

I took this with me to a snorkeling excursion in Cozumel and it worked pretty well. The fins were great; they small and therefore easy to pack and walk in. The snorkel worked very well and was comfy & easy to use. The mask also worked well, but there were a few annoying things about it (although they could also be just to do with my face. So I do have a beard (usually kept at 1/2 centimeter long), and obviously does that cause a sealing issue at the bottom of the mask where it seals right under your nose. Because of that, I had to shave just a little bit of the top of my moustache right under my nostrils; that combined with a little Vaseline on the hairs helped it get a better seal. There was some occasional leaking, but it was very little and was easy to empty out occasionally. Also, at the top of the mask where it rests against your forehead, it did start to get a little annoying with the pressure being exerted on my forehead; that could partly just be my facial structure though.Overall I'd say it was worth it and it was a lot better than the equipment I'd have had to rent there. I'll be bringing it with me on all my future cruises.

Viviendo en la playa, vamos muy a menudo a lugares para practicar snorkel y lamentablemente se empaña demasiado la máscara. Las patas de rana están bien y el respirador con el freno para q no entre agua muy bueno y práctico!

I bought this just before a trip, I had doubts about the quality of the mask but I was surprised by how well it performed. The palms and snorkel are made of durable plastic and the mask only fogged up a few times.

We plan on using the snorkel gear for a planned trip to Turks and Caicos in the spring, and were not comfortable with the idea of using gear used by others. We had a warm end to summer so was able to try the gear out in the lake. Very pleased with the fit and the seal of the mask. It is a different style of snorkel than i've used before, but was quite comfortable with no water ingress if going below the surface. I would recommend.
