I think mask and snorkel are fine for anything, but i would advice to also take real apnea fins (narrow and longer). I found the difference huge when i first tried them. Never had this feeling of "speed" under water before But you have to use the right technique. Some experienced scuba divers in my course had trouble adapting to it.

Ok I understand longer fins are better for speed, deep diving but it also good for normal snorkeling??? I'm afraid about comfort on sea level with that length ... I never tried long fins only normal scuba length...

in this scenario, I'm thinking about some entry level omer eaglerays or stingrays...

thanks for your reply

I don't think you will have an issue with comfort. I find the kicking with straight even more comfortable. The only thing i can't do with them are frog kicks.

Check out the Omer Stingray Shorts. They're only 15cm shorter than the regular. You can take them apart and transport the footpockets and blades in a normal suitcase. If you want, you can buy carbon Leaderfin blades for them later if you want to upgrade. I use them for short trips where I don't want to take my dive bag.
