Water Sneakers and Sandals Fit For Summer Adventures

9 Water Sneakers and Sandals Fit For Summer Adventures

My ideal beach day usually includes boating, hiking, and fishing by the shore — which is why water shoes are my most valued beach-bag accessory.

If you're the type that can't sit still in a beach chair, too, you probably appreciate a water sandal or sneaker that grips slippery surfaces as much as I do.

Since we're so like-minded, I'm sharing my favourite water-friendly shoes for exploring waterfalls, reeling in dinner, and setting sail, wherever your summer adventures take you.

Teva Hurricane XLT2

Designed with hikers in mind, Teva's Hurricane XLT2 ($70) shoes feature quick-dry webbing, hook-and-loop closures, nylon shank stabilizers, and rubber outsoles to secure your feet mid-climb.
