There are a couple of ways:\n\nThe non-technological way to do it is to spit a little into the inside of the goggles, spread it around with your finger and then rinse it with the water.\n\nThe technical way is to get some lens-defogger liquid which you should be able to buy from a good sports store for a few dollars.  I'v found barracuda defogger to be pretty good: http://www.trivillage.com/bargog0320.html

put up tons of buoys that block them from getting too close to your pier. Put up a portable screen to block their view...they should get the hint and go away. Then take the screen down until they go away. Try not to wear skimpy bathing suits...??

try a sequestering agent like Super Sequa-Sol, it is in no way toxic and can be added while people are in the water.

I have been diving for 30 yrs. and used all kinds of things. True, you can use spit but it really doesn't seem to be as effective as defog that is sold in dive shops and some sporting goods stores. Baby shampoo works well too. My favorite is liquid dish soap! I know, it doesn't sound like a good idea but hear me out.\n\nWet your goggles and place one drop for goggles. Masks may need more. Spread the liquid evenly. RINSE WELL (I give my mask a few shakes in the water) to avoid stinging later on. Do not use your fingers to rinse because you will remove the film. Your fingers have oils that will cause your goggles to fog too.\n\nThe reason I like dish soap because it is cheap and readily available. Most are biodegradable.\n\nWhy it works...after washing, dish soap leaves a 'sheeting film' that prevents dishes from leaving water spots on dishes. It is gone after it evaporates. When you wear a mask or in this case goggles it traps moisture inside so it doesn't evaporate.\n\nYou may have to reapply if you remove your goggles for too long or often. Remember to rinse it well. I have used this for hundreds of diving customers with no allergic reaction but if you do get irritation, discontinue.\n\nHope this helps!

Some people say spitting in them and rubbing it around helps. I usually just dip mine in the pool and swirl them around for a few seconds. Shake off the water and them put them on make sure they have a tight seal and you should be fine.

The reason the goggles fog is the difference in temperature between the air inside the goggles and the outside air. The warmer air if wet inside the goggles will cause fogging. Think of what happens to your car on a cold winter night.\n\nYes you can buy products to apply to your goggles to prevent the fog. Rain-X will not do anything as it is a water-repellant. I recommend the ones for swimming goggles. The large brands Speedo or TYR make them. Less than $5 at most sporting equipment stores. \n\nBenefit of using anti-fog drops is your goggles are plastic and swim goggles are plastic. If you put things like grease not designed for goggle surfaces you might ruin the goggle surface permanently. As always test on a corner before applying to the entire goggle.

That is kind of funny, but you need to put something in the undies so they float. If they don't, they will just sink to the bottom and it won't be as funny. The funny factor would be the floating underwear.\n\nDo everyone a favor and use clean underwear on though. You could make everyone sick by that going through the water cooler system. Gross.

Go walk around in some fog. Fog is a cloud. Basically you feel moisture.

The number one thing.\n\nGo where you can stand about waist deep.  Get used to putting your head/face under water while you are totally safe. As you get used to it hold your head under for like 30 seconds at a time.\n\nWater is dangerous.  It is scary.  Try to get comfortable being in shallow water first.

use water with salt spray.

fog happens in goggles when your face heats the air pockets inside the lens to a higher temp than the water or the oppisite. there arent may ways to prevent this. some swimmers allow a little bit of water into the pocket to keep them from fogging as much, but this trick soon fades, but lasts longer than spit. if you are swimming in water approx. the same temp as your body this wont happen at all.

first, tie your hair up in a braid, and then put a shower cap on your head. then put the swim cap over it. your hair will only get a little wet but should stay mostly dry. (sounds crazy but it works)

Try a cool damp cloth. Not too cold though.

go to partycity.com and buy a fog machine for about 30 bucks

Cover it with your hands very slowly and trap it. Then take it down to your pool if you have one or fill up a cup of water

Rub the inside of the lenses with saliva using your finger tips. This is the handy and easy way.\nFor better results you can use a piece of raw potato to rub the lenses.\nThen you rinse the goggles before you put them on.\nBoth techniques -plus a couple of others- work also for diving masks.

well i find that spiting in them and then rubbing and then rinsing doesnt work\n1. you can buy anti-fog sollution\n2.(what i do and many other competitive swimmers) cover the inside of your goggles with saliva using your tongue (i swim about 5 hours a day and they dont fog up during this time)\n3. buy new goggles with anti-fog solution and DONT TOUCH THE INSIDE (but it does wear out after a while
