buy a mask and fins at home or in a charm
Dear Travelers! Tell me, please, how to be with a mask and fins? Is it profitable to buy in Sharm or buy in Kyiv (we have a set of mask + snorkel Mares costs 50 USD)? Where can you buy it near the hotel? Also, I read that the hotel has a rental, what are the conditions. Thanks!

what will be cheap in the hotel will be of poor quality. I don’t know how to ruin the fins, but the mask can leak.
I think it would be best to rent. I don't know prices
but if they don’t write about it here, then read the reviews about the hotel, someone definitely took it, or at least knows the price)

My husband used to advise everyone to take a mask at home, in Kyiv :-) Until I saw the price.
I will say this: a real good pro mask is very expensive. And simple masks are cheaper THERE, more expensive here. checked. The same applies to slippers for entering the water and other beach accessories.

Buy everything in Sharm. It's hygienic.
The mask even on the territory of the hotel costs 30 USD, but you can buy it in the supermarket for 15 USD for sure. The main thing is to choose the right one (attach to your face, draw in air, the mask should be attracted to your face and not fall), buy fins in Sharm too.
Have a good rest.

In fact, if you need a mask to dive on vacation, it's better to buy it locally. But a good mask for more than one season, it will be difficult to find there. So first decide what you want...

If you are too lazy to bring it, then buy it in Sharm, don’t take cheap ones, you will be disappointed, how to choose a mask is described above, but you also need to measure fins.

Good quality masks and fins can usually be found in dive shops.

how does a mask bought at a hotel differ in hygiene from a mask bought at home?

definitely unprofessional pipes-masts-weasels :-) will be cheaper THERE, especially if you go to the Old Market. You can buy a snorkel mask kit for $ 10-15 more or less decent.
By the way, fins are often not needed. I took with me - shod 1 time in 10 days.

renting a mask here will cost 20-25 pounds (1 dollar - 6 pounds) and the same mask in the old market with a pipe will cost you a maximum of 10 dollars. you don't actually need fins, but slippers for your hotel are required, their cost is $5. The cost of a branded mask (Japan) starts from $30. write in a personal message and I'll tell you where the nearest point is from your hotel (if you decide to buy a professional mask here)

It would be optimal to rent. I don't know prices
And I know, therefore - I do not advise! $10 per day gives you a snorkel kit from dive centers for rent. It’s better to buy, so it will be your own, which is more hygienic, and new!

I don't think they rent a mask that costs $15. they give good ones.
and here is the eternal dilemma - what to choose price or quality ...

If you buy for a vacation, it will definitely be much cheaper in charm. In our store at the hotel, a mask up to $ 10 and flippers up to $ 15. You can bargain.

Normal fins in stores specializing in the sale of diving equipment cost about 1500 - 2000 rubles, in a supermarket fins can cost 200 -500 rubles (Prices in St. Petersburg). The difference is huge. Those who are for 200 rubles, it's like tying two boards to your feet - it's better to swim without such devices. Other people's fins or fins chosen incorrectly are extremely burdensome, alien - better without them. The mask should not be cheap, it will ruin your vacation. The mask can be picked up in diving stores (price from 1200 rubles). Recently I was looking for training fins on the Internet, there are a lot of links to stores located in Kyiv, there are such stores in your region. And cheap sets in shops at the hotel are souvenir products, it is impossible to use them for their intended purpose.

Thank you all so much for your generosity!
Having studied your recommendations, my husband and I decided to monitor more stores in Kyiv. Although, to be honest, I'm already leaning towards the option - to buy there. We are going to Egypt for the second time, we will go to the fifth - then we will take a walk in professional equipment)

Fins, two sets of mask + snorkel in the shop at the hotel bought for 65 USD outside the hotel would be even cheaper. We swam actively for 14 days and everything is ok. And my husband’s expensive, branded mask began to leak after 4 visits to Egypt. So draw your conclusions.

In Sharm it is much cheaper than here, do not chase cheapness, everything that is cheaper than 10 dollars is shit!!!
Go to a diving center in the city where a mask with a snorkel is within 25 dollars, fins are 10 dollars, they will help you choose and tell you which one is best for you!!

Yes, I forgot to say in Iberotel there is no access to the sea, but a common one, we had a hotel nearby, so I swam on their pontoon, descended the stairs, the nails stuck out 3-5 cm in the stairs !!!! The whole staircase is covered with silt, at first I thought it was the hotel’s descent into the sea and asked why they didn’t complain, I was told that the city’s public beach!!
So honestly, I'm not jealous. maybe somewhere else there is access to the sea, but this terrible one !!

kozoriz, the message was sent THREE days ago. And then the administration says that they remove ALL links .. My reference materials are removed, and any spam hangs for days.
No wonder that in the last month the activity of this server has fallen below the plinth. Email notifications are received every three to four days. It used to be 10 to 50 a day.
Why am I not surprised?

Come on:-)
Maybe people just went to rest?
Generally speaking, it's time, in the fall it's damp and dreary at home ...
In any case, "below the plinth" is too radical.

Well .. ostrich tactics also have a place to be :-)
We parted in October .. well, well :-) Most likely, no one is going anywhere, that's why they don't go to the tourist site. It is easier to believe in this than in the absence of people in the middle of autumn :-)
Well, at least the spam was removed, and then some benefit from me.
I have a great mood, and I wish you the same. Sauerkraut, I go to training and zumba, I'm getting ready for a trip in January .. I don't know where :-) Because the travel exhibition ruined all my plans :-)
And by the way, according to the subject, but in Indonesia you can buy fins and a mask on the spot? .. question ..

Guys, hello everyone! We returned with my husband from the Iberotel Phanara, wah! Not a hotel, but a fairy tale)) Regarding the mask and fins: they decided they decided, in the end they just rented it at the dive center at the hotel on a deposit of 80 USD. Treated with an antiseptic and forward and with a song. Served well all 11 days. Then they returned it back, took the money and rushed lightly to Kyiv. By the way, the suit costs money, in my opinion, 45 USD. in 5 days.

bevzik, if you meant a pontoon - yes it is not, unfortunately. But anyway, they made their way from one end of the bay to the other. And not too far to swim from the shore to the coral groves, just a couple of dozen strokes of fins) this is not a problem, to be honest). but there is no such crowd ("like for sausage"), as on a pontoon.

Returned from Indonesia. On the distant islands, a snorkel was needed. Buy IMPOSSIBLE!
Just no - that's all. They ran all the shops of the big city - the provincial capital. You can buy flippers and goggles for the pool (the locals dive with them and hunt fish with a harpoon), but there is nothing for snorkeling. Take it with you!!!!
