I can give you some advice for keeping your valuables with you (and dry) while swimming or snorkeling.
You can buy a waterproof box (for example, www.otterbox.com) to keep your cash, cameras, cell phones, etc. The boxes have a waterPROOF seal and will stay completely dry. Then, pick up one of those packable, flexible light nylon backpacks - the ones that will pack down to baseball size, not a school-type backpack. Put the box in the backpack, seal it up and you're good to go - just put it on your back and you're set for swimming and snorkeling. We used this method and it worked great. It takes away any worry about losing your valuables.
The bag doesn't interfere with the water activities, but be aware that you will have a little bit of extra buoyancy from the waterproof box, so it is hard to dive down in the water.
