Adventure Tips
Dress in layers
The breeze on the water can be cooler than on land, so wear layered clothing to stay comfortable.
Bring sunscreen and sunglasses
Evening sails still expose you to the sun’s rays, especially reflected off the water, so protect your skin and eyes.
Arrive early
Getting to the dock a little before your scheduled departure ensures a smooth check-in and time to settle in.
Secure personal belongings
Keep valuables stored safely, as the boat may rock with the wind and waves.
