WEATHER  

Things you might want to bring on the whale watch:

• You should be prepared for a variety of weather conditions. Have several layers of warm clothing (particularly early in the season) available; have foul weather gear available.

It's always better to be a "MORE-ON" than a "LESS-ON", i.e., you can always take off layers of clothes if you are too warm, but if you are cold, it's hard to add layers that you don't have.

• Shoes ... strong, sturdy, flat, non-skid, rubber-soled.
• A hat ... under cold conditions much body heat is lost through your head. During warm weather a hat is needed to protect you from the sun, rain, etc..
• Sun screen ... that blocks UV_a and UV_b. VERY IMPORTANT!
• Sun glasses ... VERY IMPORTANT!
• Sea-sick medication ....  If you are prone to motion sickness, take medication before coming on board
• Camera
• Binoculars
• The vessel has a full galley with food and drinks for purchase, but also feel free to bring your own.

• For offshore trips (all of the above and the following):

• Sleeping bag (or blanket) and pillow;
