Bring a bottle of water and sun/eye protection (sunglasses and/or a brimmed hat). Wear synthetic, athletic clothes and footwear that can get sandy or wet (or go barefoot). Avoid cotton items like jeans and sweatshirts; they dry slowly and feel chilly when wet.
Yes, but anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. The operator recommends that families with children under 10 consider a shorter option instead.
