Hydrate before you go
Bring water and drink before boarding; the operator supplies bottled water but temperatures can spike quickly.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy sneakers or light hiking shoes protect feet during mounting, dismounting and any short walks on hot sand.
Secure cameras and phones
Use straps or small dry bags—loose items can be lost in soft sand during bumps and sudden turns.
Timing matters
Choose early morning or late afternoon for cooler conditions and better light for photos.
