Start early for cooler rock
Book a morning pickup — rock temperature and humidity are friendlier before midday heat and afternoon showers.
Bring shoes that double as approach footwear
A lightweight approach shoe or sturdy water shoe helps on slippery mangrove paths and short boat transfers.
Trust fixed anchors and local anchors
Use the guide’s anchor checks and ask about recent bolt maintenance; salt spray accelerates hardware corrosion.
Hydrate and manage electrolytes
Tropical heat and climbing intensity demand regular hydration and electrolyte replacement to avoid cramps.
Climbing shoes
Precise edging and smearing on compact limestone require well‑fitted shoes.
Chalk bag
Keeps grip reliable in humid conditions where hands sweat more.
Sunscreen & hat
Sun protection is vital during boat transfers and exposed belays.
