Take motion‑sickness meds early
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication at least 30–60 minutes before departure; the ride out can be choppy even when the water looks calm.
Wear non‑marking deck shoes
Sturdy, non‑slip footwear gives traction on a wet cockpit and protects your feet during fights and when using the swim ladder.
Bring sun protection
High SPF sunscreen, a brimmed hat and polarized sunglasses reduce glare and protect skin during hours on open water.
Pack a small dry bag
Keep phones, wallets and cameras dry and secure—stow them in a dry bag or waterproof case during casts and landings.
Polarized sunglasses
Cuts glare for spotting birds and fish activity while protecting eyes from reflected sun.
High SPF sunscreen and lip balm
Tropical sun and reflected water intensify UV exposure over several hours.
Non‑slip deck shoes
Secure footing during casts, gaffs and when moving around the cockpit.
Motion‑sickness medicine or patch
Useful on choppy days—take before boarding if you’re sensitive.
