Conservation
Operators limit landings and emphasize reef‑safe products; avoid anchoring on seagrass beds (Posidonia) and follow crew guidance to protect underwater habitats.

Arrive early to check in

Wear water shoes
Rocky beaches and boat ladders make slip‑resistant water shoes useful for swim stops and stepping on wet decks.
Bring seasickness remedies
If you’re prone to motion sickness, take medication or use acupressure bands before departure — the sea can be choppy in the afternoon.
Protect your camera
Salt spray and tight cave passages mean a small dry bag or waterproof case will keep equipment safe while shooting from the boat.
