Depending on the weather, you may also want to bring a hat, sunscreen, and a bottle of water to stay hydrated. For our harbor cruises, a light jacket or sweater is advisable, as it can get breezy on the water. Don't forget your camera or smartphone to capture the beautiful sights and memorable moments during the tour. Lastly, bring a sense of curiosity and adventure to fully enjoy the experience!
