Knowing how to clear your scuba mask is one of the most important skills you must learn as a scuba diver. In this video I cover the tips you need to know in order to clear your dive mask. The keys to effective mask clearing are:
1) Have a seal against your forehead
2) Make sure your head is in a vertical position. You may need to look up if your body is horizontal
3) Breaking the seal against your cheeks just slightly (about as much separation as it would take for your pinky to fit)
4) Slowly exhaling through your nose while keeping your mouth closed.
• Placing your tongue on the roof of your mouth helps assure you are only exhaling through your nose.
• Be aware of where the water level is as it drops to that you stop exhaling once the mask is clear
• continue exhaling slowly as you seal your mask back against your cheeks

Great video! Well presented above water, and great demo underwater. Rather than being designed to show an instructor in training how to demo the skill, it clearly shows a student how to perform it.

Thank you! The first method was a life saver for me. We learned #2 and I was never successful.

if you look up water will flood your nose.. let me ask you this can you lay on your back facing the ceiling in a tub and put your head under water with out getting water in your nose ???? i find this impossible to do.. i clear my mask by looking strait forward. unfortunately i cant look up under water or i swallow water trough my nose...

[@greatdivers]

Since you are exhaling as you are tilting your head up, no water goes in your nose.
