Water realities
Multiple bays mean multiple personalities — some calmer snorkel pockets, some more exposed. Boat days: sun, motion, ladder etiquette.
Which beach / which day
First-timer bay boat is orientation, not a license to ignore local swim advice at each stop.
Smart water day
- Ask the desk today’s swim advice.
- Match beach/product to swim skill.
- Watch feet on rock entries.
- One water hero if first-timers.
- Alcohol after ladders, not before.
