miss_rach Posted June 24, 2013 #26 Share Posted June 24, 2013 One more question about the Money Bar & the dive/snorkel shop: I have all my own snorkel gear for me and the rest of the family but was thinking that it might be much easier if I carry just the mask/snorkel and rent fins. Does the dive/snorkel shop rent just fins? If so, do I have to worry about them being "all rented out" by the time we get there? Just trying to figure out if I want to lug around the fins or just the mask/snorkel. It would be much easier not to have to lug the fins around with us.

We only carry our masks and snorkels and rent fins and vests and have never had an issue with them bein rented out. Good luck!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen is so busy that all is "rented out". Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor_Poke Posted June 26, 2013 #29 Share Posted June 26, 2013 We love the MoneyBar. It's easy in and out of the water and the snorkeling is pretty decent. Buy some food and drinks while you are there as a courtesy to use a table. We used their parasailing last time and DW and I were the only ones on the boat, so we got a little extra time. They have VERY nice and clean restrooms. The one caution I would give you is that when you rent anything, they take your money AND your photo ID. If this makes you uncomfortable, make sure you come with 2 forms of ID so in case one goes missing, you can get back on the ship. I'd rather lose my DL than my passport in a foreign country. We're going to try a massage this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel really uncomfortable if they take my passport. That's good to know...thank u..

Suspect you will find the same thing if you rent gear at Chank. Good luck! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to recall that in Cozumel, they do ask for your S&S card and an ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
