Start early to beat heat and queues
Schedule morning pickup and arrive at outdoor stops before midday when temperatures and visitor numbers spike.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
The cable car and beaches expose you to strong sun and fragile marine ecosystems — choose mineral-based sunscreen.
Carry small cash
Vendors at pearl farms and local stalls may prefer cash for souvenirs and snacks; smaller notes are useful.
Wear shoes that handle sand and steps
Expect sandy stretches at Sao Beach and stepped access at pagodas and historic sites — slip-resistant sandals or light hikers work best.
