I recently purchased the long hose snorkel and was blown away by how comfortable it is to use. The corrugated hose is a game-changer, reducing fatigue and making it perfect for extended diving sessions. I’ve already recommended it to all my fellow snorkeling buddies. The build quality is solid, and the price is reasonable for what you get.
Jessica Koh –
What material is used for the snorkel mouthpiece? Ideally would want something more comfortable for people with gum issues. Still very happy with this purchase.
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your review of the Mares Ergo Flex Snorkel, Jessica. We’re happy to hear that you’re still satisfied with your purchase. The snorkel mouthpiece is actually made of a hypoallergenic silicone material, which is designed to be gentle on the mouth. If you’re experiencing any discomfort, please let us know and we’d be happy to provide more information or recommendations.

Does the clear corrigated hose get in the way while navigating tight underwater spaces? Looking forward to trying out this snorkel.
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for your question, Samantha. Our customers have reported that the transparent corrugated hose doesn’t cause any significant issues while navigating tight underwater spaces, thanks to its flexible design. However, if you’re concerned about it getting in the way, you can always twist or bend the hose to your preferred position. An added tip is to ensure the hose is securely attached to your mask to prevent any unnecessary movement. Would love to hear about your experience once you’ve tried out the Mares Ergo Flex Snorkel!
