Frequently asked questions
Planning Your Outing
Are there any restrooms on board the vessel?
No. The public boat marina where you meet has a public restroom you can use before and after the tour; once on the boat, natural options apply.
What should we wear? Should we bring bathing suits?
Bathing suits are ideal but comfortable outdoor wear is fine; guests are welcome to swim at island beaches—bring shoes that can get wet because shells can make walking uncomfortable.
Can we do wakeboarding, fishing, or other water sports from the boat?
No. The boats are not equipped for water sports and are not permitted for fishing. Swimming at island beaches is allowed and you may bring floats.
Can we bring food and alcoholic beverages aboard?
Yes. You are welcome to bring any beverages, including alcoholic (21+) drinks, plus snacks or meals onto the vessel.
Is there assistance for getting on and off the boat at beaches?
Yes. Operators provide a step stool and a railing; boarding involves roughly 1–3 steps depending on tide, so plan accordingly.
