lives to cruise Posted June 30, 2007 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I have never owned a pair but I read in a post here that water shoes are the best thing to wear when tubing in Belize. I am a little concerned because I read that we will be hiking to the caves and I am not sure water shoes can handle a hike. Can someone please let me know if water shoes will hold up and also maby make suggestions on what brand or type. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebr.cruiser Posted July 2, 2007 #4 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Teva sandals worked fine for me too. My husband used another brand of the walking/water sandals with no problems. Others seemed to get along fine with old tennies or the enclosed type water shoes. It's not a real long or strenuous hike. I just wouldn't wear anything too loose, like flip-flops or Crocs or anything too flimsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shark&minnow Posted July 2, 2007 #5 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I wore water shoes, they were fine. People who had the cheapy water shoes gave them to the tour operators after the trip so they could use/loan them to anyone who needed them. They were very glad to have them.

thebabynurse Posted July 3, 2007 #6 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I wore my Crocs. They were easy to walk in and I just put the straps on while tubing. No problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsoxfan11 Posted July 4, 2007 #7 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I also wore Crocs. MaryJane style held on great. DH thought the rocks under his feet to be a bit uncomfortable with his water shoes. Walking on the rocks with my Crocs was like a foot massage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
