Defogging the Mystery of a Fogged Up Mask

Author: DiveMaster

maskScuba diving offers incredible views of the underwater world, but you can only enjoy those views if you can actually see out of your mask. For many people, however, they consistently have trouble with their scuba diving mask fogging up every time they’re underwater. This can ruin an otherwise great dive, as you’ll continually have to return to the surface to fix the problem or simply deal with a foggy view.

There are several ways to deal with this issue, though. If it’s the first time it’s happened, simply rinse out your mask with water. After this, spit into the lens. It’s not very gentlemanlike, but it has proven very effective for many people. Rub the spit into the lens with your finger. If the problem persists, make sure to visit a professional dive shop or retailer. They will have a variety of defoggers that are sure to keep your mask clear and your dive worthwhile.
