Also bring a pair of water-adapted shoes (« closed » ones, not flappers) to put them during the descent: if you do not have any, we can lend you some. Should you need them, bring some sunscreen lotion, and you may bring your phone (placed in waterproof barrels we provide) during the journey to take some pictures and/or videos.
For safety and sanitary measures, we also ask you to bring your own mask: you will be asked to leave it on during the equipment phase and the shuttle time, and we will put them in individual bags placed in our waterproof barrels to be able to give them back to you after the descent.
