Water rides are a must at theme parks, but they can, at least temporarily, ruin shoes, socks, and makeup. Here are my top tips to survive (and enjoy) water rides without regret.
Top Tips
- Assume you’ll get drenched, even if last time you didn’t
- Pack flip-flops or remove socks—wet socks can ruin the rest of your day with discomfort at best and the possibility of blisters
- Plastic baggies are great for storing wet shoes or keeping belongings dry
- Stretch-lace sneakers make shoes easy to slip on/off
- Waterproof phone holders let you capture video without damage
- Join communities like American Log Flume Enthusiasts for more ride tips and fun
Why These Work
A little prep goes a long way. Dry socks, waterproof holders, and flexible footwear let you enjoy your ride without regrets.
