Go early to beat crowds
Choose the earliest departures — calmer water and clearer snorkeling before multiple boats arrive make for better visibility and photos.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply and reapply biodegradable sunscreen to protect coral; long-sleeve swimwear is a useful second layer in strong sun.
Bring water shoes
Shallow reefs and rocky boat landings mean sensible footwear prevents cuts and improves traction.
Secure belongings in a dry bag
Short boat transfers and splashy boarding make a small dry bag useful for phones and wallets.
Swimsuit and quick-dry towel
Comfortable swimwear and a towel are the basics for snorkeling and beach time.
