flourpot Posted March 16, 2015 #1 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I am going to the Mexican Riviera on the Ruby next week and was wondering what the beaches are like. Does anyone know if you need water shoes in Cabo and Mazatlan when at the beach/in the water? I know at Princess Cays that water shoes are needed in the water because of the rocks. Thanks!

TM Posted March 16, 2015 #2 Share Posted March 16, 2015 You should be fine without them. Any of the beaches I've been to in both locations were sandy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colo Cruiser Posted March 16, 2015 #4 Share Posted March 16, 2015 We have taken them for our Mex Riv cruises, sometimes we need them sometimes not. They don't take up much room. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleRockers Posted March 16, 2015 #5 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I am 'religious' about taking water shoes on almost every beach vacation I go on. Having done the Mexican Riviera cruise many times, I have found all of the beaches I've gone to are rock-free. If you're the type to wander off the beaten path, you may want to bring them along, but in general I'd say no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagsfan Posted March 16, 2015 #7 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Especially if there is any chance of running into coral. I hit coral snorkeling once and developed a terrible infection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunny AZ Girl Posted March 17, 2015 #9 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I agree that you should always wear water shoes. You never know what will be imbedded in the sand. I stepped on somethng sharp once in the water on a very sandy beach and suffered an infection and foot pain for months. I had a pretty big medical bill once I got home.

Ine Posted March 17, 2015 #10 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I have never had watershoes on the mexican riviera. Most beaches are sand, sometimes with a few stones. No coral on the beaches around this site in the pacific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downsized Posted March 17, 2015 #11 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I've just always worn sandals. If not needed on the beach, they are easy to carry, if they get wet, no problem. Once off the beach, they are handy. Being a guy, I actually only bring one pair of shoes for the trip, and they are my sandals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
