Local tips
- Book your tour in advance, especially during summer weekends and holidays, as tours often sell out.
- Wear comfortable kayak gear, such as a t-shirt and shorts or a bathing suit, as you will likely get wet.
- Arrive early to allow plenty of time to find parking, especially during busy summer months.
- Check the high tide schedule, as high tide may be the best time to visit the sea caves.
