shoes to wear

[frasert2]

Ok I'm sure this has probably been asked before but I have read through hundreds of threads and didn't see it.

 

We will be going to Cozumel (jeep tour), Roatan ( zip line/canopy tour), Belize (cavetubing), and Costa Maya (beach day) and curious as to what kind of shoes to wear. I know just flip flops would be ok for the beach day but not sure how much walking/water will be on the other days. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks

I would bring a pair of water shoes for any beach day due to the rocks around Costa Maya and also for the cave tubing. For zip lining, you need an athletic shoe - closed toe/rubber sole. Also wear pants or at least capris for zip lining as the harness can be rough on your thighs.

I'm sure that if you look closely at most of your excursions, they will recommend a closed-toe shoe. I HIGHLY recommend that!! There are some great athletic shoes that you can purchase that are all-terrain/water shoes, so that you don't have to bother packing multiple shoes for one excursion.

 

ENJOY!!

Best to wear athletic shoes for your zip lining day! :)

Your shoes for the zip-line needs to be the kind that you can't "kick" off....something with ties or straps!

I agree with wearing an athletic shoe and water shoes. You'll want those for the excursions you mentioned. The walk from the ship to the excursion pick up area can be a long one as well.

Thank you everyone. I think that will help us choose better shoes to take.

Go on line and take a look at the Columbia Rainmaker shoes. They're water shoes that look like tennis shoes. I have a pair and they're great! Perfect for canoeing, river tubing, going to a beach (especially if it's rocky) and pretty much any other water activity. ;)

Closed-toe shoes for ziplines are a requirement. If you don't want to buy water shoes, bring your oldest sneakers and throw them away after the cave tubing.

I highly recommend these. I just got them for my cruise in Oct, and they are seriously the most comfortable shoes ever. They have closed toes so you can wear them on hikes, and they are waterproof. Plus, they are wicked cute! I have the brown version.

Get some TEVA water shoes, at least, or better still some "sailing sneakers" from West Marine or any other reputable boating retailer. Just don't buy cheap Walmart junk.

I would have water shoes and also sports shoes.
