Do you wear your Magic Band at the Water Park?

They're waterproof so it's up to your personal preference...we always have

We do because we may decide to visit the quick service places. It also makes it convenient to charge to our account, if we eat at non-QS.

We've never had a problem with MB during or after visits to waterparks or swimming at resorts.

Kind of essential to always wear a magic band at Disney now. We wore ours to VA but we are hillbilly like that.

We wear our bands at the water parks. We use our bands to charge to our room and if we are on the dining plan.

No, but that's just my preference. They're waterproof & there is no reason not to wear them swimming or water sliding except that you're worried about it falling off. I am careful to keep them locked up, though, just like my wallet. I don't leave them out on my towel.

We snorkeled in the Epcot aquarium, and during the pre-briefing discussion, my little boy asked, "Do we wear our magic bands in the aquarium?" The tour guide said that while she was sure Disney would love for us to purchase items while snorkeling, there was nothing to buy down there so it wasn't necessary . She asked us not to swim with our bands, though, on the off-chance that they might fall off. I follow the same principle at the water parks, though I'm sure bands only very rarely fall off.

The photo people don't need you to have a band, though. Each photographer would hand out a mini-plastic card with a sturdy rubber band with the picture info on it to put around my wrist when we were there last July. So you can still upload the photo to your account without wearing the MB in the water park if you wish.

Not essential at all.
