The Scuba Doctor swim goggle range features great choices for racing/competitive, training/recreation and junior/kids goggles to ensure the needs of all swimmers of all types are looked after.
The Scuba Doctor believes that each swimmer's face is unique so a range needs to have enough depth and each goggle posses unique positive attributes in its own right, to ensure each swimmer can find a goggle that has a fit right for themselves. So while goggles in the range can be similar they will never be identical.
We also have Prescription/Corrective/Optical Lens Swimming Goggles so that you can have a solution that lets you see better in the water. Prescription Swim Goggles are for swimmers who use eye glasses on a day to day basis. Prescription goggles are basically the same as ordinary swimming goggles, but with special correction optical lenses that are interchangeable.
Note: Swimming Goggles are very different to Scuba Diving Masks and Snorkelling Masks. See Goggles vs Masks.
Goggle Lens Options Explained
Not sure which swimming goggle lens option is best suited for you? This guide may help!
Amber Lens: Offers excellent vision in high as well as low light environments as they reduce glare and amplify darker locations too.
Clear Lens: Provides natural light, perfect for overcast, low light conditions, or murky open water when you need clearer visibility.
Mirrored Lens: Ideal for extremely bright environments as they reflect the light away from your eyes.
Smoked Lens: The best option for high light level conditions, such as the sun. Smoked lenses offer protection in the same way that sunglasses do for your eyes.

Equipment
Beyond using basic scuba equipment, you'll need a digital underwater camera, plus a computer or other device for downloading and viewing your images. Your PADI Professional may suggest additional equipment and accessories depending on your camera system.
Personal Equipment — You'll need to provide your own bathing suit and towel. For your personal hygiene and comfort, there are some things that we simply choose not to provide you with, and this is more out of concern for your health and well-being than anything else. These include:
- Snorkel — Risk of orally transmitted diseases
- Mask — To prevent masks fogging, divers spit in their masks. Would you like to put on your face something that someone else has recently spat in?
- Gloves — Dermatitis
- Dive Boots — Tinea is a nasty fungal bug that loves to jump from one person to another
- Fins — Complete your own snorkelling kit
If you don't already have them, you can buy these items in our dive shop online or in-store. Our experienced dive shop staff can help you with the right equipment choices.
Rental Equipment — Rental gear is not included in the price. The Scuba Doctor has high-quality BCDs, Regulators with Dive Computers, Scuba Cylinders, Wetsuits and Weight Belts available for hire. See Scuba Equipment Rental for details.
