Seasickness can occur during our charters, even on calm days. The motion of the ocean is unpredictable and affects everyone differently. We strongly recommend taking preventative measures if you’re prone to seasickness. Over-the-counter remedies, natural options like ginger, or consulting your doctor for advice can make a big difference in your comfort during the trip.

Please understand that on shared charters, we cannot return to the harbour if a passenger becomes unwell. Our crew will do their best to assist, but preparation is key to ensuring a great day on the water.

By booking with us, you acknowledge that seasickness is a potential risk and accept responsibility for taking necessary precautions.
