Protect the deck
Bring low-profile, non-marking shoes or plan to board barefoot—high heels and abrasive soles can damage the cork surface.
Sun and sea kit
Pack reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, and a light wind layer—the sun reflects strongly off the water even on cool days.
Plan for no onboard toilets
Use public port facilities near the marina before departure; there are no onboard toilets or changing rooms.
Swim safely
Always check depth at the mooring and follow your captain’s guidance for entering the sea—currents can be stronger than they look.
Sunscreen (reef-safe)
Protects skin during sun-drenched crossings and reduces environmental impact.
