Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
Strong tropical sun and reflection off the water increase UV exposure — apply broad-spectrum, reef-safe sunscreen and reapply after swimming.
Wear water shoes
Rocky shorelines, boat ladders and wet cave entries are easier and safer with closed-toe water shoes.
Manage motion sickness
The speed-boat ride can be choppy; take motion-sickness medication before departure if you’re susceptible.

Panyi is a living fishing community — avoid touching private property and ask before photographing locals.
