Hydrate before boarding
Drink water before pickup and bring a refillable bottle—dehydration increases seasickness and fatigue underwater.
Bring motion-sickness meds if prone
Take antiemetic medication the night before or an hour before departure if you get seasick; the boat crosses channels that can be choppy.
Mind reef etiquette
Do not touch coral or chase fish; maintain neutral buoyancy and listen to instructor cues to avoid accidental damage.
Bring ID and comfortable footwear
Carry your passport or ID for check-in and wear slip-on shoes for quick transitions on and off the boat.
Swimsuit & rashguard
Quick-dry swimwear and a rashguard protect from sun and provide light thermal layering in warm seasons.
