The Experience
Before You Go
Take motion-sickness meds ahead of time
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication at least 30–60 minutes before departure; the Gulf can get choppy later in the day.
Wear sun-protective layers
A long-sleeve UV shirt, wide-brim hat, and reef-safe sunscreen protect you during long exposure on deck.
Bring a small dry bag
Keep your phone, ID, and any medications dry in a compact waterproof pouch stowed under the center console.
Stow shoes with grip
Non-marking, non-slip water shoes improve stability on wet deck surfaces and protect toes when boarding.
