Seaview 180 V3 Full Face Snorkel Mask Adult- The V3 is The Perfect Snorkeling Gear for Adults- Snorkel Mask with 180 Panoramic Viewing and Up to 600% Easier Breathing- Patented Flowtech Air Intake

This mask is everything it is hyped up to be, handled extensive snorkeling. Probably 15-20 hours on my recent trip to the Cayman Islands. The ability to breath through your mouth and nose is great. It never water boarded me or anything. Seal worked good, it didn’t stop working if a little hair got in the way. Viability is excellent, had zero fog issues and I didn't use any treatments to prevent that. Be careful with installation and removal of the tube, it feels like a failure point. Try to just keep it assembled. Obviously you can’t equalize so it isn’t very comfortable if you take a dive down 10ft to look at something. The breath ability is second to none though. I could swim for hours with this and not feel labored breathing. Be careful not to remove it while in deep water, it can be difficult to get it back on but not impossible. Every once in awhile I slightly would lift up the front of the mask to remove any CO2 build up from the large area for it to accumulate.I would buy 20 of these if I heard they were going to be discontinued and I literally recommend them to everyone. Excellent product.

I love in Puerto Rico and have been snorkeling for over 20 years. Hands down this is the best snorkeling mask I have EVER used. It arrived a couple of days ago and I tested it out yesterday. It did NOT disappoint. Extremely comfortable, very easy to use, and I had no issues at all. Even when I would dive down about 10ft deep, swim around, and come up for air, I could continue breathing with no issues at all. No water came making it very easy to continue to snorkel after diving. The POV on the GoPro was perfect and the videos came out great. The pictures that I have attached are still shots from the video footage I recorded. I just order (3) more so that my guests (when visiting me) can experience them as well. I will probable order another (10) as I have lots of friends here on the island. THESE ARE GREAT!!! Thank you!!!

So I heard about the Seaview 180 V3 and that they had made improvements to the design to help reduce the work of breathing. I already had a Seaview 180 V2 and have enjoyed it, so I thought I would give the V3 a try. I am very impressed. The V2 is still a solid snorkel mask, but the improvements that were made for the V3 are not to be dismissed. I took both masks to the gym to test them out and can definitely say that the ability to take deep breaths, even under exertion is noticeably better with the V3. I also enjoyed the new design to the straps that allow you to clip them on instead of having to always pull it over (you can still pull it over though if you choose). I also noticed that the face seal is better - I can wear it looser and not have leaks on the sides of the mask, even when the pressure increases with diving. And speaking of leaks, if they do happen, the V3 has a great drain mechanic that once you come up, you just lift your chin up and the water drains right out, without having to take the mask off. And all of that with the same (or better) clarity and view angles provided by the full face mask of the Seaview 180.TL,DR:•Noticeable improvement in work of breathing•Easier mode of putting the mask on•Improved face seal allows looser fit and same/better seal•New/improved method to drain water from mask• Same great full view angles and claritySo, if you're looking for a snorkel mask, or even if you have one, but you wish it worked better, I would suggest you try the Seaview 180 V3. You will be glad you did.

I tried snorkeling for the first time last year on a family vacation to Maui. While I enjoyed some of the experience, I simply could not get a decent seal on my mask and water was constantly coming in and obscuring my vision. I tried a few different masks and even attempted to cover my moustache with Vaseline to stop the leakage. I tightened the mask straps to the point that I'd get headaches. Nothing gave me a watertight seal. By the end of the trip, I was only able to see in my mask during the short time I was exhaling through my nose to keep the water out. Not much fun.I may have been able to get a decent mask fit over my facial hair (a goatee and moustache) by going to a dive shop and putting down some serious money for a better mask fitted for me. I'm only an occasional snorkeler so paying a lot for that seemed stupid. I considered shaving clean but no one, including my wife, wants to see that.I saw other swimmers with full face masks and thought that might work so I bought this one before a family trip this year to the Virgin Islands. Wow. Just wow.The waterproof seal was remarkable for me and I have not had to tighten the straps much at all to get it. Breathing was effortless and I never once got water down the tube, even in rougher water. The view through the mask was outstanding. Comparing this full face mask to a regular mask is like the difference between an IMAX movie and a regular movie. It seems to resist fogging quite well too. My vacation was saved!If there are any cons, I needed to remember not to tip my chin up too far when breaking the water's surface to look around. If you do, a valve closes in the breathing tube and stops the air. It's easily solved by tipping your chin down a little. The mask is a good bit heavier than a regular mask but in the water, it's nothing. Finally, you do end up looking like an Imperial Storm Trooper but maybe that's not such a bad thing.If you have facial hair and can't seem to get a watertight seal with a conventional mask, this may work for you as well as it worked for me.
