short fins for travel snorkeling

I want to take short fins traveling this time to snorkel with. Any
recomendations? I live in a rural area and do not have a dive shop nearby.
I will order off the internet. I have seen the Aqua Sphere Zip fin online.
Anyone have anything to say?

If he's buying a new pair of fins this would not be my choice. I'd go for something a
step bigger. These are very small fins meant to enhance the kick in a swimming
stroke, which uses arms as well.

If you want to pack big fins then some of the (freediving) replaceable-
blade types fit easily into a suitcase with the blades removed from the
footpocket. I can pack my enormous Picasso's in my regular case this
way.
