The Experience
Before You Go
Bring sun protection
Long exposure on deck means sunscreen, a wide-brim hat, and UV sunglasses are essential to avoid sunburn.
Pack motion-sickness remedies
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication or use acupressure wristbands before boarding; the guide can slow down in rough water.
Waterproof storage
Use a small dry bag for phone, wallet and camera — spray and splash are frequent during transfers and swims.
Respect catch limits
Follow the crew’s guidance on which fish to keep; local rules and sustainable practice are enforced on regulated waters.
