I love these Crocs. I'm not really a beach kind of guy. So, my wife, had me get these for our recent trip to Florida. They were great on the beach. The sand on my feet didn't bother me. Then I would just walk in the water to wash them off. Once I was back to the house I rinsed them off with clean water and put them in the sun to dry. Surprisingly comfortable for a water type sandal, in my opinion.
