Generally a rope is suggested. Dock line about 1/2 inch thick.

There're threads where this has been asked over and over again.

from what i've read, nylon rope seems to be the best option. thickness should be around 14-18mm. personally i got a 3m nylon rope that is 16mm thick i believe.

just don't get manila. i bought it and it's hardly malleable, making it a real bitch to tie up.

Double braided dock line. Strong and smooth.
Great for securing your boat too! A 1/2 inch line has a tensile strength of 7400 lbs. Pretty good!

If you can't find the dock line as others have suggested, you could buy a 10-12mm polyester rope
