For windy days we highly recommend taking over the counter motion sickness pills like Dramamine.

Showers are available on the beach, however there are no changing rooms available.

No license is required to operate a seabob, and you will be provided with a short safety briefing and instruction prior to your tour.

Clothing is of choice, however a long sleeve shirt is recommended to ride on the seabob to protect from the sun and also from the friction between the seabob and the pilot belt. You should also bring a towel and sandals for the beach and put sunblock on.

You do not need to know how to swim to participate in this tour. However, you are required to wear a pilot belt which will be attached to the seabob while operating which makes it very safe. The seabob also acts like a life jacket and floats on the surface. While in the water we always have one of our instructors out there with you.

Seabob operators must be at least 10 years of age with parental consent and supervision.

No weight limit, but must fit in security harness.
