Bring a towel, sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, and a camera. Swimwear is recommended if you plan to snorkel.
Is this suitable for young children?
Yes! The trip is safe and family-friendly, though children must be supervised by an adult at all times.

Dolphin watching tours usually depart early in the morning (around 6:30–7:00 AM) to maximise your chances of sightings.
