Arrive early to catch the best light
Sunset timing is key—arrive at least 30 minutes before departure to settle in and set up cameras.
Bring a light jacket
Ocean breezes can turn chilly after sunset; a windbreaker keeps you comfortable during the trip.
Motion sickness preparedness
If prone to seasickness, take precautions before boarding; the boat remains stable but the ocean moves.
Respect wildlife distance guidelines
Stay seated and avoid loud noises to prevent disturbing the marine animals you’ll observe up close.
Binoculars
