Product Information
Full details
The Cressi Palau Marea Bag Snorkelling Package is an ideal starter kit for recreational snorkelers, swimmers, and casual scuba divers looking for a reliable, all-in-one equipment solution. It delivers a significant performance upgrade over rental gear with its high-clarity mask and efficient fin design; however, prospective users should note that while the compact design is perfect for travel, the open-heel fins are optimized specifically for warm water conditions rather than cold-water diving.

FAQs
Can I use these fins with dive boots?
The Palau fins are primarily designed for use with bare feet or light socks, though they may accommodate very thin water shoes.
Is this set suitable for children?
The kit comes in various sizes; ensure you select the appropriate size variant for the wearer's foot dimensions.
Does the snorkel have a purge valve?
Yes, the Gamma snorkel is designed for easy clearing and efficient performance.
How should I store the mask to prevent lens damage?
Always store the mask in its provided case or bag, ensuring the glass does not rub against hard objects.
Can I replace the fin straps if they break?
Yes, Cressi offers replacement straps, but you should rinse them after every use to prevent premature degradation.
Troubleshooting
Mask is fogging up during use
Ensure the factory silicone layer has been removed from the lens and apply an anti-fog gel or saliva to the interior glass before putting the mask on.
Water leaking into the mask
Check for hair trapped in the skirt seal and ensure the strap is positioned properly across the widest part of your head.
Fin strap slipping off the heel
Adjust the buckle tension on the fin straps to ensure a tighter fit against the back of your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your gear, always rinse the mask, snorkel, and fins with fresh, cool water immediately after saltwater use to prevent salt crystal buildup and zipper corrosion on the bag. Before your first swim, clean the inside of the mask lenses with a specialized mask scrub or a tiny amount of non-abrasive toothpaste to remove the factory silicone residue, which prevents fogging. Adjust the Palau fin straps before entering the water; they should be snug enough to prevent slipping but loose enough to avoid cramping. Store the set in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight, as prolonged UV exposure can degrade the flexible silicone components.
