Food Suggestions, Things to Bring, and Directions

Food Suggestions

Avoiding Sea Sickness

No one wants to provide a recycled lunch for the marine life. Luckily, we are providing you some tips on how to avoid Mal de Mer or sea sickness.

• Avoid greasy or acidic foods for several hours before your adventure begins.
• An empty stomach can be worse than eating the wrong foods.
• Drink plenty of water.
• Drinking alcoholic beverages before sailing and sometimes during sailing can induce sickness.
• If you start feeling sick, avoid the cabin and enclosed spaces. Laying down and/or losing site of the horizon can and will add to the sickness.
• If someone in your party becomes sick, avoid watching the show. Sympathy sickness can happen.

Items to Bring

These are some of the items we suggest:

• Beverages
• Sunscreen
• Sunglasses
• Hats
• Camera
