Crusin Karen Posted March 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 9, 2016 We will be doing an excursion with Exodus Tours where there is a 15 minute walk to Emerald Pool. Question: what kind of shoes should I wear? I normally wear "crocs." Are these sturdy enough or should I wear sneakers? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snyniew Posted March 14, 2016 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2016 You'll be fine in Crocs, I did it last year in flip flops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmayor Posted March 30, 2016 #3 Share Posted March 30, 2016 We were just in Dominica last week and went to Emerald Pool. Personally, I would not want to do the walk in a 'loose' shoe like flip flops or Crocs. I had on thick-soled Teva sandals with good ankle straps and was fine, husband had sneakers. The trail to the pool is under repair so the 'exit' route is being used both to and from the Pool, so there is a lot of foot traffic. Many exposed rocks and roots on the trail, compounded by the fact that it is through the rain forest so very wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it was hot and humid and it was not a "fun walk." And personally, I don't even think it was worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
