How much should I spend on snorkel gear?


I want to give a gift certificate for snorkel gear (mask, fins, and snorkel) to my boyfriend for christmas. I don't want to spend TOO much, but I would like to get him some decent stuff. He only snorkels now occassionally, but is planning on starting scuba this summer. Would $100 be enough? $150?

Where can you get surf instruction and junior lifeguard training and transportation from san gabriel valley?

You can find mask, fins, and snorkel for as little as $25 or so. So $100 would get him something REALLY nice. Now if you start getting into the scuba gear, that's a whole different animal and much more expensive. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and that he is as giving as you!

Is Jello Powder really a good energy source?

Give him the most you can afford, but price isn't everything it is the fit of the mask as well. If he wants to dive then make sure he tries the masks on first and finds one that fits perfectly. If it leaks when he is underwater clearing it is easy, but a real pain if you have to do it all the time.

Forget about the $25 junk, because that is all that it is. The $150 will be a great start for the gear. The fins and the mask should be top quality, but don't go crazy on the snorkle. I never use mine diving, unless I am in rough water. So yes, $150 will get a good an average set of gear. Maybe just try to give him the money for a good mask and snorkle, and worry about he fins later. Anyway, good luck.
