I use an Olympus Stylus 550wp it is very tough takes good pictures and is around 150 buck. Waterproof and shockproof. You can drop it on concrete without worry, not that you would want to do that, but you can. The Canon D10 also waterproof is actually a better camera and will take better pictures. Not as tough on the shockproof side and is quite a bit more expensive. Olympus also makes the tough series in several different models, the higher end ones are pretty sweet but again a bit more pricey. When I have to replace my current camera I'll probably get the tough 8010 or the Canon D10. That said I'm still pretty happy with my Stylus 550 just wish it had a nicer lens, a bit more zoom, better focus range, and the ability to take better images in low light settings.

All things said just make sure you get a waterproof camera so you don't have to worry about getting it wet.
