Equalize early and often
Start equalizing ears before descent and continue frequently—don’t force it if you feel pain; abort the dive if equalization fails.
Hydrate before the dive
Drink water in the hours leading up to your session to reduce risk of decompression issues and motion sickness.

Apply biodegradable sunscreen before arrival to protect marine life; reapply after the dive if needed.
Bring a light wind layer
Post-dive chills are common on the quay—pack a thin fleece or windbreaker to stay comfortable.

Wear under a rental wetsuit for comfort during the briefing and surface intervals.
Shorty or full wetsuit (rental available)

Waterproof footwear or water shoes
Protect feet on rocky quays and when entering/exiting small boats or shore entries.

Light windbreaker or fleece
