Do you have a big nose and you love scuba diving and snorkeling?

Are you having trouble finding a frameless scuba mask that fits well?

Having nose that is on the big side does make it somewhat difficult to find the perfect mask due to the kind of nose pocket that most dive masks come with these day.

A frameless scuba mask is somewhat preferred over regular masks as the former usually sits closer to you face when you wear them.
