The catamaran slips out from Negril as late afternoon light softens the Caribbean; laughter and an on-board DJ lift the deck into motion while the coast unfurls — seven miles of pale sand and shallow blue that invite a mid-day stop for swimming and lounging.

Use reef‑safe sunscreen
Protect coral and your skin — apply before boarding and reapply after swimming; operators may restrict chemical sunscreens.
Bring cash and ID
Small vendors at 7 Mile and tips at Rick’s Cafe are cash-friendly; bring ID if you plan to drink.
If you get seasick, medicate early
Take anti-nausea medication at least 30 minutes before departure; the catamaran can roll in choppy conditions.

Keep phone, wallet, and a spare shirt dry for the boat and beach stops; towels are useful if you plan long beach time.
Swimsuit and quick‑dry towel
Comfortable swimwear and a towel are necessary for snorkeling and beach time.
Reef‑safe sunscreen
Protects your skin and the coral; many operators ask guests to use reef‑safe products.
Water shoes
Helpful for rocky shoreline areas and when exploring shallow reef approaches.
Small dry bag
Keeps valuables dry on deck during sea spray and when moving between boat and beach.
