Shoes?

This will be our first trip to Aruba at the end of August. We will be staying at the Tamarijn. What kind of shoes do we need for the beach since I'm reading alot about rocks? Also, will we need water shoes for the natural pool? Thanks

>>>> " will we need water shoes for the natural pool?"
----- Yes! Actually you won't need them for most resort beaches but I wear a pair around my resort all day. I take them off when actually on the beach but found them great for sitting at beach bar, going for lunch, walking around the pool area(bricks/cement can get hot in the sun), going to the restroom, getting a cold Amstel Bright Beer, ........

I think you should be okay with flip flops on the beach. A paid of water shoes with good grip would be good for the natural pool. Rocks are slippery.

I have Teva water shoes and they're great for jogging around/aerobics, etc. in the pool as well as the beach!
