Start early for calm water
Morning crossings (after pickup) usually offer the clearest water for snorkeling and smoother drone footage.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Wear biodegradable sunscreen and avoid touching coral to protect the reef and prevent cuts from sharp coral.
Secure belongings for beach stops
Bring a dry bag or waterproof phone case—boat pickups and beach activity can splash gear at will.
Check motion-sickness plans
The short speedboat ride is quick but choppy; bring medication if you’re prone to seasickness.
