Hi!
If you have already tried these on and are sure of your sizes, you can
order them online from places like DiversDirect.com or scuba.com. If
you have not tried them on and are "guesstimating" your sizes, I suggest
you go to your local sporting goods store and try them on there. Masks
can be tricky. What works on one person may not work on another.
Once you buy them, practice with them in a pool so you can get be sure
everything is ok before you get to Honduras. In terms of pricing, it
depends. On Roatan, there is a Mares shop with great prices. I have
also bought equipment at TGI in West Bay and the prices were 30% cheaper
than in the US.
By the way, dry snorkels don't always work. The shutoff device can get
stuck in an "open" position and cause your snorkel to take on water.
Have a great trip!
