Bring sea-sickness medication
The bay can be choppy; take preventative medication at least 30 minutes before boarding if you are prone to motion sickness.
Layer up for wind and spray
Even warm days get cool on the water—bring a light windbreaker to stay comfortable on the upper deck.
Protect your skin and eyes
Use reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses, and a wide-brim hat—the reflected sun off the water intensifies UV exposure.
Charge extra camera batteries
Long-range zooms and repeated shots drain batteries; bring spares or a power bank for uninterrupted photography.
