Morning Tides Are Best
Book early-morning sessions when winds are lighter and waves are cleaner; tidal windows matter more than time of day here.
Bring Reef Protection
Reef and rocky takeoffs are common — reef booties and a long rash guard reduce cuts and sun exposure.

You’ll paddle through whitewater; confirm basic swimming comfort and tell your instructor about any health issues.
Use Reef-Safe Sunscreen
Choose mineral-based sunscreen to protect coral and comply with local conservation efforts.
Swimwear
Quick-drying swimwear or boardshorts for comfort during repeated paddling and falls.
Rash guard (often included)
Protects skin from board rash and sun; many schools provide one but bring your own if preferred.
Reef booties
Protects feet on reef takeoffs and when walking rocky shorelines.
Reusable water bottle
