The Experience
Before You Go
Bring your original driver’s license
Spanish law requires an original driving license in the Latin alphabet; no photocopies—international license recommended for non-Latin scripts.
Arrive 30 minutes early
Check-in and safety briefing are mandatory; late arrivals won’t be able to join and aren’t refunded.
Hydrate and layer
Two-hour rides expose you to sun, wind and temperature shifts—carry a water bottle and a light windproof layer.
Secure phone and valuables
Use a small dry bag or chest pocket—phones can fall on rough track sections and saltwater at snorkeling stops will damage electronics.
