Book early morning departures
Morning trips usually mean calmer seas, better visibility for snorkeling, and fewer boats at popular stops.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Sunscreen chemicals harm coral; bring a mineral-based formula and reapply sparingly after swims.
Carry motion-sickness remedies
Open crossings and chop can trigger seasickness—take medication before boarding if you’re prone to it.
Respect marine-park rules
Some bays and reefs are off-limits or have time windows; follow your guide to avoid fines and protect reefs.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protects skin while avoiding damage to coral and marine life.
