Go early for glassy water
Morning departures usually offer the best visibility and light, with calmer seas and fewer boats in the lagoon.
Use reef‑safe sunscreen
Apply reef-safe sunscreen before you arrive and reapply on dry skin; chemical sunscreens damage coral and are restricted in many areas.
Bring a snug mask and swim skills
A well-fitted mask prevents fogging and leaks—basic swimming ability makes the experience far more comfortable.
Respect the reef and marine life
Do not stand on or touch coral, and avoid chasing or harassing turtles and rays; follow your guide’s instructions.
Mask & snorkel (personal fit)
A comfortable, leak‑free mask improves visibility and enjoyment during the 2‑hour snorkel.
Reef‑safe sunscreen
Protects skin from tropical sun while minimizing harm to coral ecosystems.
Water shoes
Useful for rocky entry points and protecting feet on the beach or boat ladder.
Quick‑dry towel and change of clothes
You’ll appreciate a dry set of clothes after snorkeling and lunch.
