Bring a rashguard
A lightweight rashguard protects from sun and chafing under BCD straps during surface time and on-deck breaks.
Hydrate before diving
Drink water before the briefing—dehydration increases fatigue and risk of decompression symptoms even on shallow dives.
Practice equalizing
If you have a history of ear issues, practice gentle equalizing techniques on shore and tell your instructor before entering the water.
Protect marine life
Do not touch or chase animals; avoid fins-down stirring that buries small organisms in sand channels.
Swimsuit & rashguard
Every diver needs quick-drying swimwear and sun protection for surface periods.
