Description
The Seac Reverse Dry Snorkel with Dry Top Clear/Blue is a travel-ready dry snorkel designed to keep water out of the tube so you can breathe comfortably at the surface in choppy conditions or when diving beneath the waves. Its advanced dry top system seals automatically when submerged, helping prevent splashes and waves from entering while you explore.
An ergonomic soft silicone mouthpiece delivers a secure, comfortable bite that minimizes jaw fatigue during long snorkeling or diving sessions. The flexible corrugated lower tube keeps the snorkel positioned correctly when in use and allows it to drop away from the face easily when switching to a regulator.
For quick, effortless clearing, a one-way purge valve beneath the mouthpiece lets you expel any residual water with a simple exhalation. Lightweight, durable construction and a compact design make this dry snorkel easy to pack for travel and reliable enough for frequent use by snorkelers and divers of all skill levels.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a dry, semi-dry, and classic snorkel?
A classic open-top snorkel is a simple tube, the most reliable design, but it takes on water when a wave passes or you duck under. A semi-dry snorkel adds a splash guard at the top that deflects surface chop, though it still floods if fully submerged. A dry snorkel adds a float-operated valve that closes the top when submerged and keeps the tube mostly dry, at the cost of more moving parts and a little extra bulk and buoyancy.
What does a purge valve on a snorkel do?
A purge valve is a one-way valve in a sump below the mouthpiece that lets water you blow out drain away instead of sitting in the tube. It makes clearing easier, since a short sharp breath clears the snorkel with much less effort. The tradeoff is one more part that can foul with sand or grit, so rinse it and check that it seats cleanly.
How do I attach a snorkel to my mask?
Snorkels attach on the left side of the mask with a keeper that grips the mask strap, leaving your right side clear for the regulator hose. Position it so the mouthpiece reaches your mouth with the tube running alongside your head, without twisting the strap or pulling the mask skirt off its seal. Many keepers are quick-release, so you can remove the snorkel without disassembling the mask.
Do scuba divers need a snorkel?
It depends on your training agency, the dive operation, and the diving you do, since some courses and operators require one. A snorkel lets you breathe at the surface without using tank gas, which matters on a long surface swim or in chop while waiting for the boat. Follow your instructor's or operator's requirements, and consider a folding snorkel if you want one stowed rather than on your mask.
What size or shape of snorkel should I choose?
A snorkel that is too long or too wide increases the volume of air you rebreathe and makes clearing harder, which is why recreational snorkels cluster around similar lengths and bore sizes. A flexible lower section lets the mouthpiece drop away from your face while you are breathing from the regulator. Mouthpiece comfort matters more than any other feature, so pick one you can hold without jaw fatigue.
How do I care for a snorkel?
Rinse the tube, mouthpiece, and purge valve in fresh water after each dive day, then let it drain and dry fully, because standing salt water in the sump grows mold. Check the mouthpiece for splits and the purge valve for trapped grit, both of which are inexpensive to replace. Store it out of direct sun so the silicone stays soft and clear.
