I am traveling to Thailand and am looking for snorkeling gear, I hate long fins, I would really like a short pair, I think these would work?

possibly, I have worn in a pool for lap swim only, but they certainly increase your speed as opposed to no fins at all,

I have a pair and like them a lot. not sure what you mean by 'work'?. they work for me, but can't compare to longer fins as I never owned any.

I found them to be pretty heavy actually. I don't think they would work very well snorkling. They are basically a training aid to learn to swim better but I guess you could give it a try.

I love these short fins. I do not snorkel, but I use them in the pool working out. Enjoy your trip!

Can't really say any, but most are standard. If yours uses an allen screw to hold the fins in these will probably work.

Yes, 4 sets of snorkel gear will fit. Great buy for me. 3 mil Full Body, BCD and gear with plenty of room to spare.

On second thought, a set of water shoes would work better. Cost about the same . Are you going to be diving?

Hi Sara If your buying a woman's fin go m-l If men's s-m, they are an open back design with adjustable strap, I dive mostly in cold water so I wear a 5mm boot, I am a size 8 and the s-m are just fine. The fins are good, they are stiff and that makes for good speed, but it does take good strong legs if you are doing multiple dives.

They fit my large Décor fins pretty good (very similar to scubapro jet fins). But as with all replacement fin straps they are a little thinner than the originals. So you either need to tape them with good electrical tape or as I do with black zip ties to make sure they don't slip. Of course they will only fit you after you do this.

Only with small fins like FCS or Future. If you have a larger middle fin, like on a longboard, no.

we took our sets to Cancun last year. They took up a lot of space in the suitcase, but we went snorkling every day & were very glad we had our own equipment to go whenever we want. The fins for xl mens are about 24 inches

I do use booties with my open-strap snorkel fins (a different fin by same manufacturer). My feet tend to blister easily, and I find less irritation when I wear the booties.

Hello. See my answer below. First, though I would recommend another brand entirely. These fog up terribly and the fit leaves something to be desired. I have been a swimmer and scuba diver for many years and would suggest you go cheaper if you are just planning to swim. Speedo is a good brand overall. Also, would recommend that you wear contact beneath your mask. You are more likely to get headaches with glasses on. There will be double depth to your overall perception. Hope this helps.

They might -- but the head bracket I received with a new snorkel was defective, so I'm using my old one. And not very pleased with the overall performance of the new snorkel itself. I may be considering a different mfg next time. Good luck!

I wear an ll man's shoe, and their 'large" size is a really tight fit. you might be ok, a bit loose, they SAY you can fix by wearing a sock. i could not swim any faster with them than with large scuba fins, and I had to work much harder with the aqua fin. I am not, however, training to really swim, just to endure, lose weight, and built leg muscle. If your goals are different, they might work for you.

I would recommend wearing a lightweight long sleeve shirt instead. These are quite thick, and most comfortable when getting wet.

Good question. I don't swim with or own a pair of fins so I can't answer for certain....but it fits my shoes with plenty of room to spare. I'd be willing to bet they would fit. Best wishes!

I did not use when snorkeling. I used these shoes in a water aerobics class. I did not have any trouble with them slipping while exercising. I think they would be OK.

Realistically, prolly not. It may be possible but you would be cramming everything in and it would have to be placed just right. I mean if the fins were two adults and two children its more likely, but with all the gear... I wouldn't think so. But it also comes down to the length and fin size. My fins are extra long and made to fit my size 15 feet... but others are claiming it will so perhaps it will. It is a really big bag so depending on what size everything is then maybe. Doubt you'll get shoes in though.

As a newer Go Pro user, i cant give my opinion from experience, but i did use the drying inserts, while snorkeling and in humid Jamaica and everything worked out great. I did use the filters some, but didn't notice a huge difference, didn't have any issue getting them to fit. I opted on the side of better to have it then not have it. Haven't used them since.
