Adventure Tips

Check Weather Forecasts Before Departure

Florida’s coastal weather can shift quickly—ensure you review forecasts to avoid sudden storms or high winds before heading out.

Bring Eco-Friendly Sunscreen

Protect yourself and the local marine environment by using reef-safe sunscreen to prevent pollution in sensitive coastal waters.

Reserve Multi-Day Rentals Early

If planning a multi-day trip, book ahead as slips are required and availability may be limited during peak seasons.

Secure All Loose Items

The boat’s powerful engine can create wakes that jostle gear—stow loose items securely to avoid losing them overboard.
