Mares TRE or Plana Avante. They're good enough for diving, good for
snorkeling and way, way more than you'll need in a pool.

I don't recommend the Quatro Power fins except for diving and then, only for
those with powerful legs who dive in strong currents.

I use Oceanic Caribe fins for the pool, and snorkelling. Thought about a
pair of V6's, but they seemed like overkill!

To be honest, does it really matter as long as they're comfortable? It's not
like you're going to be finning against any strong currents or for long
distances?! Personally I'd go for a cheap 'n' cheerful pair...
