Arrive Early for Calm Water
Mornings usually have lighter winds and flatter water, which makes steering and speed control easier for first-time riders.
Wear Reef-Safe Sunscreen
Apply broad-spectrum, reef-safe sunscreen before launch and reapply after, since the sun and spray increase UV exposure.
Secure Valuables
Use a shore locker or a waterproof dry bag rated for phones—most providers cannot take responsibility for lost items.
Respect No‑Wake and Mangrove Zones
Stay within designated channels and obey instructor directions to protect fragile mangroves and avoid shallow hazards.
USCG-approved life jacket
Usually provided but bring a personal one if preferred for fit and safety.
