Adventure Tips

Bring polarized sunglasses

Polarized lenses reduce glare on the water, helping you spot fish more easily in the lagoon’s shallow waters.

Prepare for changing tides

Fishing success depends on timing with tidal shifts, so consult your guide and plan accordingly for high and low tides.

Wear lightweight, breathable layers

Even in warmer months, mornings can be cool; dress in layers to stay comfortable throughout your trip.

Use reef-safe sunscreen

Protect your skin and the delicate lagoon ecosystem by using eco-friendly sunscreen products.
