How to choose a diving mask?
Choosing the right diving mask is essential to ensure comfort, safety, and enjoyment of your diving experience. Here are some steps to consider when choosing a mask:
1. Adjusting the diving mask
The diving mask must fit perfectly to the face to ensure a seal. To check this:
- Place the mask on your face without putting on the strap.
- Inhale air through your nose – the mask should seal.
- Check that the mask stays on your face, even when you tilt your head forward.
2. Shape and seal of the diving mask
Different diving masks come in different shapes, so it's important to find one that fits your face:
- Put on the mask and tilt your head back, looking up.
- Run your finger around the edge of the mask to make sure it touches your face all the way.
- Make sure all hair is away from your face to avoid leaks.

3. Size of diving mask
Diving masks are available in different sizes:
- Place the mask on your face without using the strap.
- Inhale through your nose and remove your finger – if the mask stays in place, the size is correct.

4. Viewing angle and volume of the diving mask
A well-chosen diving mask should provide a wide viewing angle and have a small internal volume:
- Check the horizontal and vertical viewing angle.
- A mask with a smaller volume makes it easier to clear the mask when freediving.

5. Diving mask collar color
The diving mask collar can be made of black or transparent silicone:
- Transparent silicone widens the viewing angle and is brighter, which is important for people with claustrophobia.
- Black silicone may cause feelings of claustrophobia in some people.

7. Diving Mask Care
To ensure your diving mask lasts for many years, you need to take proper care of it:
- Rinse your mask with fresh water after each dive.
- Store the mask in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and heat sources.
When choosing a diving mask, keep these steps in mind to find a model that will keep you comfortable and safe while diving.
