mbacnik Posted January 9, 2010 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Will be trying snorkeling for the first time on our Eastern Caribbean cruise this spring. We're concerned about wallets, passports, etc., while we're in the water if lockers aren't available. Any recommendations for waterproof bags and is this the best solution?

tombo Posted January 10, 2010 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Don't take your passport when you get off the ship. Or your wallet. Bring a ziploc sandwich bag for your room key and any cash or credit cards. All will still work fine even if they've gotten wet. If you don't have any pockets to put them in, you can usually find a little mini-box at a dive shop to attach around your wrist or neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mini boxes are great, we have bought them at the ships store before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalker Guy Posted January 11, 2010 #4 Share Posted January 11, 2010 If you have time to order online, Aloksak! I have tried many bags, boxes, etc. and these are the first I have found to be reliable. Also reasonably inexpensive. They are similar to heavy duty ziplock bags with double seals. Google aloksak.

scorpluvsdolphins Posted January 11, 2010 #5 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I bought a waterproof box at Walmart in the camping section. I dive and keep this in my dry bag which I also bought there. I made a copy of my passport and put it in my box. terri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluehorizonlover123 Posted January 14, 2010 #7 Share Posted January 14, 2010 You must buy this little purse. I bought it years ago and it is still water tight. I swim with my cash and ID stuff right on my waist. It is worth the money!!!! http://www.magellans.com/store/Safety___Security___Security_Purses___TotesSV834?Args= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texkan Posted January 14, 2010 #8 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I use a dry pak (small dry proof wallet that can be worn around waist). Google Dry Pak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
