Hydrate for the heat
Bring 1–2 liters of water and sip frequently—coastal sun and quick climbs raise exertion fast.
Protect from sun and salt
Use reef-safe sunscreen, a brimmed cap under your helmet, and sunglasses to block glare near the beach.
Shoes and pedal choice matter
Use flat pedals or clipless if you’re comfortable—trail surfaces vary from packed dirt to loose volcanic gravel.
Secure your phone and camera
Expect sandy beach stops and splash zones—use a dry bag or zip pouch to protect electronics.
