Hi all.
I'm planning a trekking trip across Central America, with many snorkeling excursions. I've budgeted $100 for equipment, but I'm a newbie, and don't really know what I'm looking at. I'm told liquid crystal masks and 100% dry snorkels are best, but fins are especially puzzling--some are long and solid, others short and contoured (for example, Scuba Diving Skin Dive Silicone Mask, Dry Snorkel, Fins - eBay (item 320207469474 end time Jul-11-08 21:24:06 PDT) vs. Snorkeling Scuba Dive Gear Bag Mask Dry Snorkel Fins - eBay (item 220248870098 end time Jun-26-08 10:55:00 PDT)). Are these quality packages, and which might best suit me?
Thanks!
