Wear secure water shoes
Choose closed, grippy water shoes or canyoneering boots—they’ll stick on wet limestone and protect your toes on rocky approaches.
Bring a thin base layer
Although wetsuits are provided, a thin synthetic or merino layer under the suit adds comfort on cold pools.
Know your limits on jumps
Guides offer multiple jump heights—start low and ask for route options if you prefer abseils or sliders instead.
Arrive with a waterproof phone case
If you want photos, a sealed case or action camera lets you capture slides without risking your device.
