Helpful Hints

​

• What to bring - We suggest layers. Checking the weather prior to your trip to be best prepared. Bringing wind breakers & hats is always a good idea. Sunscreen & snacks are also recommended.

​

• If you get seasick or if you're not sure, best be prepared by taking medication 1-2 hrs beforehand. Products such as Gravel, Gaviscon, Sea-Band or Motion Sickness Patches that you stick behind your ear work well.

​

• Do I need a fishing licence? Yes, a Fishing Licence is  required and can be obtained at:        ​https://www.pac.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/fm-gp/rec/licence-permis/index-eng.html
