Closed Heel Fins

Closed-heel diving fins, also known as full-foot fins, feature a foot pocket that completely encloses the foot, eliminating the need for a separate strap or heel. These fins are typically worn without any additional footwear, offering a snug, barefoot-like fit.

Common Features

Snug Fit

The closed heel design provides a close, comfortable fit, making them ideal for warm-water diving or snorkeling where additional thermal protection is not needed. 

Barefoot Comfort

Many divers prefer closed-heel fins for their barefoot-like feel and ease of use, especially in warmer waters. 

No Adjustable Strap

The lack of an adjustable heel strap can be a disadvantage in colder water or for those who require more secure foot retention. 

Fin Socks

If cold water diving or extended use is anticipated, fin socks can be worn inside the closed-heel pocket for added comfort and protection. 

Freediving & Snorkeling

Closed-heel fins are commonly used for freediving and snorkeling due to their streamlined design and powerful kicking capability. 

Travel-Friendly

Their compact size and lightweight design make them convenient for travel.
