    For the River Kayak & Zipline adventure (FA23) in Falmouth, Jamaica. Can you please clarify what type of water shoes are needed? Can I wear a pair of strapped on Teva's that would be open toe? Or do they have to be closed toe?

    Ahoy, Tony!

    Welcome aboard planDisney! It sounds like you’re gearing up for an adventure straight out of a Disney movie—soaring through the treetops like Tarzan and paddling down the river like Moana finding her way! Falmouth, Jamaica, is a stunning port, and this excursion is sure to be a highlight of your cruise.

    For the Adrenaline Zipline and River Kayak Port Adventure, closed-toe shoes are required for the zipline portion. Your sandals will work great for the kayaking portion, as long as they have a secure heel strap and won’t do their best Cinderella slipper impression and vanish mid-adventure! Since there may be some climbing involved, I personally prefer wearing closed-toe water shoes on excursions like this. They keep my feet protected and save me from having to carry an extra pair of shoes.

    And since you’ll be making memories more valuable than Captain Jack Sparrow’s treasure, I highly recommend bringing a waterproof case for your phone or camera. A lanyard is also a great idea—because while Ariel may have gadgets and gizmos aplenty under the sea, your phone probably wouldn’t enjoy the swim! My family and I did a river tubing Port Adventure on our last trip to Falmouth, and even though the weather wasn’t exactly “Hakuna Matata,” we still had an amazing time. Jamaica’s lush scenery and crystal-clear waters make for an unforgettable experience.

    I hope this helps as you prepare for your high-seas adventure! If you have any more questions, just send up a signal flare—or better yet, drop anchor back here at planDisney, and I’ll be happy to help!

    Sea ya real soon with pixie dust and ocean breezes,
