I recently purchased both of these items which are just brilliant. No looseness on the fins and the snorkel didn't let any water in no matter how hard I tried on purpose. I also purchased a different set of fins which were inappropriate for me so I phoned up and spoke to someone about what I needed and he gladly helped me over the phone for a good 20 minutes due to being a bit of a rookie and all. They took the other fins back no questions asked. Fantastic shop and I won't be buying my gear from anyone else. Thanks guys.

Bought this snorkel to take with me to Indonesia. Lovely dry breath, very easy to clear through bottom valve and float didn't stick at all. mouthpiece very comfortable and designed in a way that i didn't have to grip it which made for a much more relaxing swim. Good piece of kit.

I used this snorkel only about 3 times whilst on holiday this month, after which i discovered that the plastic cap covering the membrane had dropped off. The membrane now has no protection and keeps falling out, this snorkel is now unusable. I am very disappointed as I thought Mares to be a good make. Happy to send a photo and I would like to return it. I will consider a replacement, but would now choose a different model. Please advise. Thank you. Lisa Beaumont

Pros- Solidly built plastic.- Bottom purge valve works well- Comfortable mouth piece.Cons- The snorkel clip is a bad design. Doesn't release easily and mine broke within three dives.- The desert dry valve sticks shut occasionally, requiring pliers to fix. When it jams shut, you can't suck any air in. I'd classify that as a safety issue.Bottom line: I managed to fenagle my desert dry valve to open and close freely, and am happy with it now. But after the problems I've had with it, I wouldn't buy it again. It's a shame...usually Mares makes quality stuff; the overall build quality is good, but the dry-valve design is horrible.
This is an excellent dry snorkel! Nice construction and durable components, the fit is comfortable and soft and most importantly the water says out. I highly recommend this product if you're looking for a dry snorkel!
I have used this snorkel for over two years and it has been flawless. It is a great fit and mouthpiece for me is very comfortable. Super easy to clear. Build quality is superb. I would solidly recommend this snorkel.

Recently purchased the Mares Ergo Dry snorkel to replace my old U.S. Divers snorkel (yes, I am that old). Dry is the word...I had only a few drops of water in it and that cleared effortlessly. Very little noise and a comfortable fit and it delivered air more than adequately. The mouthpiece is comfortably soft and the snorkel slips on and off the mask strap easily but stays on securely. No problems here!
Compared this Mares snorkel with 3 other brands recently in an effort to get the best snorkel I could for under $35.00. Although I did not test this snorkel in water, it appears the snorkel is well constructed, has a comfortable mouthpiece, a large breathing tube, and a very sleek overall design. However, I also felt there could be 2 potential problems. 1st--the snorkel to mask plastic attachment piece was cumbersome to use and, in my opinion, could be prone to breakage if the snorkel were to be attached and detached to the mask regularly. 2nd--the top dry valve seemed as though it wanted to stick shut every now and then. Maybe it was just the particular snorkel I had, but I could see a serious panic problem develop if an inexperienced person was out in open water ... MoreCompared this Mares snorkel with 3 other brands recently in an effort to get the best snorkel I could for under $35.00.

Thought the other snorkel's I compared had better designed top valves which opened and closed easier than the valve on this Mares model. Bottom line: I am big on Mares products (90% of my dive gear is Mares) and while I would not be afraid to own and/or use this snorkel, in my honest opinion, there are better snorkel's out there for the money. Sorry Mares - 3.5 to 4 stars TOPS on this one. Safe diving to all!!
I love this dry snorkel! It truly is dry. My previous snorkel had me coughing and choking as I swallowed water...this one has barely any water in it and is easy to clear.
