What may I want to bring for a fun day out in the sun on a boat?
H2O Captain T-Shirt ⚓ Bathing suit (please wear under your clothing)
⚓ Long sleeves (to protect from the sun)
⚓ Wide-brimmed hat
⚓ Boat shoes (these will get wet and sandy, we guarantee it!)
⚓ Sunglasses
⚓ Eyeglass and sunglass retainers: straps that attach to the frame of glasses to ensure that they stay wrapped around your neck if they are knocked from your face.
⚓ Your own cooler with your food and/or beverage.  H2O Captain supplies only chilled bottled water.
⚓ Sunblock (please apply 30 minutes PRIOR to getting on the boat)
⚓ Towel
⚓ Waterproof or resistant Windbreaker and/or jacket as the air temperature is typically 10 degrees COOLER on the water than on land!
⚓ Camera
⚓ Bug spray
⚓ If you are prone to getting seasick, please take your medication before you go to sleep the night before and approximately 1 hour prior to departure, or make sure you have it with you on board. We have found that as our boats are “open,” meaning no cabin, the constant fresh air is helpful in mitigating any seasick feelings.
⚓ A bag for all your belongings.
⚓ A smaller bag for your valuables.  Our preference is for you to leave ALL valuables on land!
⚓ A bag for shelling (if applicable on your tour) will be provided by H2O Captain! State regulations do not allow creatures who haven’t abandoned their shell to be taken.
⚓and most importantly, your smile!
Furthermore, our boat has its own first aid kit onboard.

What may I want to bring for a Sunset Cruise?
⚓ Boat shoes (non-black soles), flip-flops, etc.
⚓ Sunglasses and "regular" glasses.
⚓ Eyeglass and sunglass retainers: straps that attach to the frame of glasses and surround your head or neck.
⚓ Camera
⚓ Waterproof or resistant Windbreaker and/or jacket
⚓ A bag for your valuables.  Our preference is for you to leave ALL valuables on land!
⚓ Your own cooler with your food and/or beverage.  H2O Captain supplies only chilled bottled water.
⚓ Bathrooms are available at the marina.  Our Sunset Cruises can run up to 3 hours.  Please make use of the restrooms on land.
⚓ and most importantly, your smile!
