Pack sun protection
Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, and polarized sunglasses—the sun reflects strongly off coastal water.
Manage seasickness
If you’re prone to motion sickness, take preventative medication before departure—nearshore swells can still roll.
Confirm regulations
Check Alabama catch limits and licensing rules ahead of time so your group complies with season closures and bag limits.
Secure your camera
Use a waterproof case or dry bag for phones and cameras—spray and wet fish hands are part of the day.
