Abstract: A waterproof money belt characterized by an access opening in the pouch having a first sidewall and a second sidewall. A first peripheral edge of the first sidewall extends past a second peripheral edge of the second sidewall such that a flap portion is formed adjacent the first peripheral edge. The flap portion of the first sidewall is movable between a position parallel to the second sidewall and a folded position in which the first sidewall overlies the second sidewall, Mating ZIPLOC closures are used to secure the first sidewall and second sidewall together, A first tape fastener is positioned adjacent a first peripheral edge on a first interior surface of the flap portion of the first sidewall. A second tape fastener is positioned adjacent a second peripheral edge on a second exterior surface of the second sidewall. The first tape fastener engages the second tape fastener when the flap portion of the first sidewall is in the folded position.
