Two years ago, I crossed off a life-long bucket list experience – snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef.
As most things in life however, often the fantasy one has built up in one’s head doesn’t match the reality.
Don’t get me wrong, I was enthralled by the wonders of the reef, however having never snorkeled before, I wasn’t prepared for the trickery of using a regular snorkel and mask.
As avid readers of my blog, you know how, a) I’m utterly uncoordinated and b) move at a stupidly fast pace without putting much thought into my (uncoordinated) movements. Combine the two, plus attempting to breath underwater, and you get a spluttering mess.
If only I had a full-face snorkel mask! Not only would I have not swallowed many mouthfuls of brine, but I would have enjoyed the experience eleventy-hundred times more.

Well, simply it’s the unicorn of all snorkel masks that ANY one can use. Yes, even ME. It provides a 180° viewing area and the dry Snorkel Technology stops salt water from getting into your mouth which prevents gagging. You can breathe from your mouth and your nose without fear of drowning while exploring the wonders under the sea.
There are a lot of these types of masks selling online and in retail shops at the moment, but the AquaGear Australia mask has the biggest viewing area of any snorkelling gear on the market right now. It takes about three seconds to put on and is super comfy to wear.
And, if all that doesn’t sound incredible, AquaGear has just launched the AquaMask II. This news model includes new features such as the new foldable breathing tube, making it much easier to install and store.
Plus, the AquaMask II has a portable GoPro mount that really works well with GoPro or other action camera. You can even mount your Iphone with a ProShot Case which turns your Iphone into an underwater camera!
There are five colours. Black-red, Black-blue, White-blue, White-pink and Grey-orange and the masks come in three different sizes. You can check our sizing chart here:
https://www.aquagear.com.au/sizing-chart-dimension/
Cruising With Honey is giving away ONE AquaMask II in your choice of colour and size valued at $94.95 courtesy of AquaGear Australia. All you have to do is enter on our Facebook page, write ENTERED and MEMORISE THIS CODE WORD: MERMAID.
Do NOT write it in the comments section, but keep the word safe. If your name is selected, you MUST reveal the code word to WIN! Terms and Conditions on Facebook page, please read carefully. GOOD LUCK!

WHEN I went on my first ever cruise, a 2-nighter aboard the Dawn Princess, I packed 7 pairs of shoes.
Yes, you read that right, S-E-V-E-N for T-W-O nights. I had a whole luggage bag just for my shoes! I had NO idea what was expected aboard the ship; at the formal dinner, in the casual eateries or even around the pool. Suffice to say, I wore only two pairs of the footwear I lugged – sandals and a pair of heels.
Now with seven cruises under my belt, I have learned my lesson and only take TWO pairs including the ones I wear on boarding day; a dressy heel and thongs. If I think I’m going to do loads of walking on a tour or go to the gym (hahahahahah), I’ll take some joggers. As you can tell, I have spent a lot of brain-power thinking about footwear, and while I’m not one for stereotypes, I, like MANY women-folk, LOVE MY SHOES.
I must admit though, I have faced a shoe-conundrum packing for my adventures at sea. While those cheap rubber thongs are fine for wearing around the pool, they’re not appropriate to wear in the main dining room. So, at night, I put on the heels and trot painfully up and down the stairs. I love heels, but on a rocking boat, climbing stairs and dancing till the wee hours, they are not the ideal footwear. I have racked my brain trying to think of a solution. I want to have stylish feet but still feel comfy. WHAT TO DO?
Well, guess what? I found a solution! One of the followers of my blog has a fabulous footwear company in Brisbane called It.Beach which specialises in sandals that have been designed specifically to be worn on cruises and around water. Not only do they look great, but are also super-duper comfortable. They feature:
· Anti-stress (massage) technology in the soles
· Breathable vents for air circulation (no more sweaty feet)
· A wide range of colours and styles, many featuring handcrafted sparkles
· A cute message at the bottom of the soles that leaves an imprint in sand,
"Quem Me Ama Me Segue" which translates to “Who Loves Me Follows Me"
· Made with recyclable materials, are cruelty-free and comply with fair-trade.In preparation for my next cruise, I have been test-driving the purple STRASS DUBAI SPLIT IN AMETHYST & LAVENDER, and I have to tell you, they are gorgeous and go with everything. I can wear them at the beach, shopping, dinner, movies, ANYWHERE. Every time I take a step, it’s almost like getting a foot massage. Light-weight, they also dry very fast.
So there you go, I have found the perfect solution to my shoe dilemma for my upcoming cruise to Moreton Island. I’ll only have to take ONE pair of shoes, and be able to wear my It. Beach sandals everywhere on the ship and at the beach.
Now, as I love you all, I am giving away TWO PAIRS of sandals thanks to the generous people at It. Beach. The two winners will be drawn at random from the competition on my Facebook page and will be able to choose any style from the sandal range. All the details can be found here.
GOOD LUCK
