Blue Grotto entry is weather-dependent
The Blue Grotto opens only in calm seas and certain light—expect the captain to reroute if conditions are unsafe or unfavorable.
Bring cash for cave tickets
The Blue Grotto entrance fee (€18 per person) must be paid in cash at the ticket office if access is available.
Sun protection and reef-safe sunscreen
A canopy provides shade on the boat, but bring reef-safe sunscreen and a wide-brim hat for exposed moments on deck.
Wear grippy water shoes
Low freeboard and wet decks make non-slip footwear a good idea for boarding, swimming, and re-boarding the gozzo.
