The Jeep growls to life and the Caribbean opens up — salt-stiff air, scrubby jungle pressing close, and a ribbon of shoreline that dares you to slow down.

Bring reef-safe sunscreen
The coral here is sensitive; use only reef-safe sunscreen and reapply before entering the water to protect both skin and reef.
Wear water shoes
East-side beaches have rocky shorelines and shallow reef entry points—water shoes protect feet and make scrambling easier.
Plan for heat and sun
Start early or mid-morning to avoid peak afternoon heat and bring a hat and extra water; bottled water is provided but carry a refillable bottle.
Cash for crafts and tips
Small artisan stalls and some beach vendors accept only cash; bring small bills for souvenirs and gratuities.
