When Diving in Komodo, Choosing the Correct Mask and Fins can Make Your Experience Much More Enjoyable. 
When choosing a mask and fins for diving in Komodo, many things should be considering, including; fit, comfort, and efficiency.  Having proper equipment that greatly increase your enjoyment while under the water.  

Mask
- Choosing a mask is an extremely important part of scuba diving or snorkeling. No matter what you are doing underwater, you need to make sure you can see clearly. Here are some factors you should consider when choosing a mask for diving in Komodo:

Fit:
Choose a mask that fits, as this is is essential for a comfortable and safe dive. Look for a mask that creates a good seal around your face and doesn't leak when you inhale through your nose.  Everyone has a slightly different shape face, so choosing a mask that fits a bit more snug really can help your diving experience.

Field of Vision:
The wider the field of vision the better you can see. This will allow you to see more of the underwater environment and spot marine life more easily.   If you can only see directly in front of you, that you may be missing so many things on your left and right side and this could be a safety issue.

Lens:
Choose a quality mask that is made with a tempered glass lens.  This makes the mask more durable, and less likely to shatter than plastic lenses.

Color:
Many people have different options on this and it also depends what kind of diving your are doing.  You might want to consider choosing a mask that has a colored lens, such as yellow or red, as these can enhance visibility in certain lighting conditions.

Fins
Fins are another crucial piece of scuba diving equipment, as they allow you to move efficiently and smoothly underwater. Here are some factors to consider when choosing fins for diving in Komodo:

Fit:
Fins should fit snugly but not be too tight or uncomfortable. Look for fins that are the right length for your feet and don't slip off or rub against your skin.  You want to work well and also be comfortable because you may be spending a lot of time underwater.

Style:
There are several different types of fins to choose from.  These can include; split fins, paddle fins, and full-foot fins. Consider which style will be most comfortable and efficient for the diving style you will be using them for and the kind of diving you will be doing.

Material:
Fins can be made from rubber, silicone, or other materials. Rubber fins are typically more durable and will last longer, while silicone fins can be more comfortable and flexible. 
Size: Fins come in different sizes, so make sure to choose a pair that fits your feet comfortably.  Being on a hour dive at 30 meters in not as much fun if you fins are too tight or too lose.  Having the wrong size fins can truly negatively effect your diving experience.

Weight:
Some fins are heavier than others, which can affect your buoyancy and energy consumption underwater. Consider choosing lighter fins if you plan to do long or strenuous dives.  Conserving your energy is very important and choosing the right gear for that can dramatically help you.
​
For an overall view of masks and fins, you should choose a good quality  mask and set of fins for scuba diving in Komodo National Park. Make sure to consider things such as comfort, fit, and efficiency. By finding equipment that fits well and is suited to your diving style, you can enjoy a safe and enjoyable diving experience in one of the world's most stunning underwater environments.


As well as scuba diving in Komodo, it doesn’t matter where you dive, you should try to have equipment that suits you, the type of diving or snorkelling you are doing, and make you comfortable while under the water.  There are many brands to choose from such as;   Scuba Pro, Mares, Salvmar, Aqualung, C4 Carbon, Best Divers Picasso, apes, x deep, omer, beuchat, sea, and many more.
