Upgrade Your Experience: The Full Face Mask Advantage

Choose The Beginner Bundle:

Why start at the bottom when you can start at the top? Transform your certification into a premium experience by upgrading to a Full Face Mask. It eliminates the common discomforts of traditional gear, letting you focus purely on the wonder of the underwater world.

​   

The 3 Key Benefits

  • Breathe Naturally, Forget biting down on a mouthpiece or only being able to breathe throught your mouth. With a Full Face Mask, you breathe naturally through your nose and mouth. Plus, the 180° panoramic design gives you a cinematic, fog-free view of the ocean that traditional masks simply can't match.

  • Do you like staying warm and keeping your face completely dry while diving? The mask is secured to your face with a six-point strap system, so your air source can’t accidentally get knocked out like a traditional regulator. Even in an emergency, an unconscious diver would continue receiving air the entire time. Plus, you can even add underwater communication systems, basically underwater walkie-talkies. Once you try a full face mask, it’s hard to go back.

  • Exclusive "Bundle" Pricing!!! We believe every diver deserves the best start. That’s why we offer this $350 advanced specialty for just $125 when you bundle it with your Open Water Experience. You save $225 and start your diving journey with a distinct advantage.
