Where to buy

Another Ocean Reef Aria model, the Ocean Reef Aria Uno full face snorkel mask gives a great 180 view with ultimate comfort.

The shape and build of the Ocean Reef Aria Uno mask prevents moisture entering the mask as well as preventing any fogginess. The mask is made to be lightweight and durable with high quality materials.

The use of a soft silicone skirt also means the mask fits well to the face. Ocean Reef also offers a variety of sizes to ensure the mask fits your face snug and is not too tight or too large, which could either cause discomfort or allow water to enter.

This mask size is a little big, if you are inbetween sizes we advise you go down a size rather than up one.

Recommended in: Full Face Snorkel Mask

Things we like:

  • Light weight
  • Comfortable
  • Anti-fog

Things we don't like:

  • Sizes run too big

Durable yet lightweight, the Ocean Reef Uno is comfortable thanks to the materials used in its construction.

With comfort at the center of the design, this full face mask fits well to most face shapes, with the exception that the sizes can run quite large.

We would recommend buying a size down if you are in between sizes.

The rubber straps are soft yet provide a good fit preventing the mask from moving whilst in the water. The Dry Top along with the silicone skirt of the mask also ensures no water enters the mask.

Ocean Reef products have designed their own orinasal passage that connects the front of your face with the snorkel for optimal sealing around your nose. They test all their products in water for safety and comfort.

The Ocean Reef Uno has excellent airflow, breathing with the mask is easy and the unique Ocean Reef technology ensures no fog.

Features

The Ocean Reef Uno full face snorkel mask provides you with a 180° panoramic view of the underwater world, upgrading the field of view from traditional masks.

Ocean Reef guarantees no fogging thanks to their patented air circulation technology that allows for a free flow of fresh air into the mask.

The Ocean Reef Uno is compatible with all accessories in the Ocean Reef full face snorkel mask range. Accessories such as the Snorkie Talkie and Optical Lens’ Kits help to increase the snorkeling experience.

With rubber straps and a soft silicon skirt the Ocean Reef Uno fits well. The shape and seals ensures no water gets into the mask.


Price/Quality Ratio

The Ocean Reef Uno is well worth the price considering the high quality of this mask. All Ocean Reef masks offer good value given the experience they provide.

Compared to other masks of similar quality, the Uno offers very little to regret if used more than once. For reference, a good snorkel and mask will cost about the same.

Like other Ocean Reef full face snorkeling masks, the Uno is specially designed to be comfortable and give you the best fit possible when snorkeling. For this reason, we feel the price is more than justified.


Do we recommend it?

Yes, we recommend the Ocean Reef Uno Full Face Snorkel Mask for snorkelers looking for a comfortable snorkel mask. The Ocean Reef Uno is one of the most comfortable snorkel masks on the market and provides snorkelers with an excellent 180° panoramic view underwater.

After trying and testing around 10 other full face snorkel masks, the Ocean Reef Uno mask stood out due to its comfort. We tried this mask quite a few times and put it through lots of tests, in which it scored highly. For this reason, we strongly recommend the Ocean Reef Uno full face snorkel mask for all snorkelers.
