Cressi Baron - Review 2023

Review

Cressi manufactures excellent water sports and their full face snorkel masks are no exception. The Cressi Baron is an affordable and comfortable mask. With a 180° wide view this mask has excellent underwater visibility, with minimal distortion.

Though there’s a little bending of the view at the outermost edges, it’s only noticeable if you’re looking for it. We were actually hunting for it, yet it wasn’t enough to ruin the experience.

Watertight thanks to the soft silicon skirt and straps, the Cressi Baron snorkel is also equipped with a dry guard. This mask is easy to use and the design ensures a natural airflow for effortless, natural breathing.

With the same separation of air exchange that the best full face snorkel masks have, and the more expensive Duke model, this is definitely a model worth considering. Very probably one you won’t regret buying, in fact.

The soft straps are adjustable and ensure a tight fit. The materials used are good quality and lightweight, making the Cressi Baron easy to transport and comfortable to wear.
