Full-face masks are becoming increasingly popular thanks to their anti-fog design and ease of use. The only down-side to the full-face style is that you're not able to block your nostrils, making equalising impossible, unless you're able to hands-free equalise. Don't get us wrong though, they're a great snorkelling mask, just not designed to go below the surface.
