Dress for Changing Weather
Western Australia’s coast can be windy and cool even in summer; layered clothing is key to staying comfortable during the flight and shoreline walks.
Bring Sun Protection
Apply reef-safe sunscreen and wear a wide-brimmed hat since much of the adventure takes place on exposed shorelines and in the sun.
Stay Hydrated
Carry water during shore excursions, as there are no facilities near the blowholes themselves.
Footwear Choice Matters
Use sturdy, closed-toe shoes for walking over uneven rocky terrain to ensure safe footing along limestone cliffs.
