What is this page best for?

This page is the central hub for high-quality Diving Gear and essential underwater hardware. It is designed for serious watermen and women who need equipment that balances technical performance with simplicity. You will find everything from primary essentials like masks and snorkels to specific maintenance components like fin blade T-channels and fixing kits. If you are looking to build a streamlined dive setup or maintain your current kit for peak performance in the salt and spray, this collection offers the durable, tested solutions SALT Of The Sea is known for.

Choosing the right thickness

While this collection focuses on hardware, pairing your gear with the correct Wetsuits is vital for a successful dive. Consider your environment when selecting neoprene protection:

• 1.5mm: Best for tropical reef exploration and summer sessions where mobility is the priority.
• 3/2mm: The versatile standard for temperate Australian waters, providing year-round comfort for most divers.
• 4/3mm & 5/4mm: Essential for winter diving or southern coastlines where thermal retention is critical for safety and bottom time.

Warmth, stretch and durability

At SALT Of The Sea, we believe diving equipment should be an extension of the diver. Our gear is built to withstand abrasive reef environments and constant saltwater exposure. We prioritise low-volume designs in our masks for easier equalisation and use high-grade silicone for a reliable, comfortable seal. For those focusing on specific disciplines, we offer specialised Spearfishing Wetsuits and technical accessories that integrate seamlessly with our diving hardware. Every product is tested in real-world conditions to ensure it delivers the durability and freedom of movement required for serious underwater exploration.

FAQs

What is a low-volume mask and why do I need one?

A low-volume mask sits closer to your face, reducing the amount of air inside. This makes equalising the pressure easier during descents and makes the mask much simpler to clear if water enters. It is a preferred choice for freedivers and spearfishers who want to conserve oxygen and energy.

How do I choose the right amount of weight for my belt?

Weighting depends on your buoyancy, which is affected by your body composition and the thickness of your wetsuit. A general rule is to aim for neutral buoyancy at a specific depth (often 10 metres for freediving). Always perform a buoyancy check in shallow water when changing gear or suit thickness.

Can I use this gear for both scuba and freediving?

Yes, much of our equipment, such as masks and snorkels, is versatile enough for various diving styles. However, our masks are specifically designed with the low internal volume favoured by breath-hold divers, which also provides an excellent field of vision for recreational scuba diving.

How should I maintain my diving hardware?

Always rinse your gear thoroughly in fresh water after every salt session. Pay close attention to buckles, seals, and small components like camera mounts. Store your equipment in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the silicone and plastics from degrading over time.
