Where to put valuables?

Recommended Posts

When I go swimming/snorkeling in Nassau & Freeport, where can I leave my valuables (digital camera, wallet, backpack, sunglasses, etc.)??
Are there any lockers available for rent? Price?

There are no lockers to rent, and I wouldn't advise you to take your valuables to the beach with you. Use a simple beach bag or pack - nothing that would catch an eye. Don't forget, theft can come from your fellow travelers, not necessarily locals.


I usually carry a waterproof pouch or wallet for just a few bucks and ID... and a disposable camera.

Where did you get your waterproof pouch?
There are no dive shops near me. I am in PA. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

I did not find any waterproof pouches etc.. anywhere close by. But I did find waterproof pouches, bags, safes, etc... on ebay for less money than some of the websites. Most were being sold by sporting good stores on ebay also. If you do ebay it is worth a try.

Thought I would add this for anybody who might need the info!!

You can use a waterproof pouch and/or a nylon wallet.
Just bring along some cash and one Credit card and some ID. Leave the big bulky leather wallet at home or in the cruise safe. (noone cares if your bills get splashed)

Never leave your good camera on the beach. If you're going parasailing etc. You can bring a small pouch or wallet with you and leave it in the boat, or in the front compartment of the jetski.

Wal-mart also has this type of thing on their site for alittle cheaper. The shipping and handling; unfortunately, make up for that though. I also checked with a fishing mart in my area, and they have Pelican cases for the same price sans shipping costs. For those needing a case for money/bills only, I'd try a cheap kid's snorkel kit I've found at Wal-mart. The one I purchased contained a cylinder case with a screw-on cap with a rubber seal. It had a cord attached to hang around the neck, and it floats. Very handy and cheaper than the pouches w/ a mask and kiddie snorkel to boot!

when i went jetskiing in freeport, i ended up putting my bag with the jetski operator's booth (ocean motion watersports)...

however, i put my money/CC/sail&sign in a ziplock bag and placed it in my board/swimming shorts


at blue lagoon, just keep it on the beach when u go swimming and keep an eye on it...there arne't that many people on the beach...
