More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the C1 dock at Rodney Bay Marina as the engine hums to life and the Caribbean loosens its afternoon heat. The captain slides the boat from the slip and the bay opens — water that pushes a warm welcome against the hull, gulls scanning the wake, and the shoreline folding back into palms and low hills.

Arrive Early at the Marina
Give yourself 15–20 minutes to find Elena's Ice Cream parlour and the C1 dock so boarding is smooth.
Use Reef‑Safe Sunscreen
To protect coral and marine life, apply reef-safe sunscreen before boarding; reapply with a towel to avoid spills on deck.
Bring a Light Layer
Evenings cool quickly on the water; pack a thin windbreaker or long-sleeve to stay comfortable after sunset.
Plan for Seasickness
If you’re prone to motion sickness, take medication 30–60 minutes before departure and sit mid‑boat to minimize movement.
Reef‑safe sunscreen
Protects your skin and the coral — apply before boarding.
Dry bag or waterproof phone case
Keeps valuables and electronics safe during the snorkel and sunset watch.
Light windbreaker or long‑sleeve
Blocks the evening breeze as temperatures fall after sunset.
Personal snorkel mask (optional)
Some prefer a well‑fitting mask over rental gear for clearer vision and comfort.
