The video snorkel mask

This is Maddie Mele, from the Philadelphia suburbs (Willow Grove.) We met her recently at Maho Beach and had to ask her about her Liquid Image snorkel mask with built in underwater video camera (and still camera too.)

Maddie and her family have a Westin Villa – a three bedroom pool villa no less – and come for a couple of weeks at the end of January and beginning of February every year. And one of the advantages to being a Westin owner is the coveted “owner’s closet.” That’s where they stash that gigantic tent you see in the background.

Maddie, who is thinking about enrolling at the University of the Virgin Islands soon, promised to send us some video from her mask-cam when she got home, and she just did. Maddie and her mask are no threat to Steve Simonsen, but for a $99 mask, it shoots pretty fun video. And she found a turtle. See for yourself, below.

   Hey!

   I have a question? Our last name is also MELE and we are from New Jersey, formerly from Philadelphia. Could you give them our email info. Would love to find out if we are related. We are also Westin owners (July). Small world.

   Thanks! Jeff.

   How cool is that! My son received one of these for Christmas and it will be making the trip with us to St John in 27 days (but who’s counting)

   We’ll forward any good stuff if we get it.

   Hi Maddie and Mele family,
   I thought the camera took awesome video. Great shot of the turtle. Glad you had a fabulous visit in St. John. We will have to join you some year. Chicago is too cold this time of year. MISS YOU my former neighbor!

    If I ever decide to snorkel, I think I would purchase one of these contraptions rather than mess with an underwater camera. I don’t think it’ll happen, but I like to have options.

    These masks are wonderfull. They work great for snorkeling, the pool and for scuba diving. Best part of it is that they are not expensive. Check out the webiste and see for yourself.
