Abstract

The disclosure relates to a diving mask comprising a body having a faceplate and a flexible skirt, and a snorkel extending a top portion of the body.

The exhaled air exhaust includes at least a first check valve arranged to allow exhaled air from the bottom chamber to flow towards the air duct of the snorkel during a stage in which the user is breathing out, the first check valve being closed during a stage in which the user is breathing in.
