The Experience
Before You Go
Take seasickness precautions
Bring prophylactic medication or ginger if you get queasy; a calm morning and light meals can reduce symptoms.
Sun protection is critical
Sunscreen, a wide-brim hat and UV shirt protect you on reflective tropical waters.
Bring a waterproof camera or case
You’ll want underwater photos at Coral Gardens and of stingray encounters—phones without protection risk saltwater damage.
