6. Will I get sea sick: Due to the open and stable nature of our boat, few passengers get sea sick, however everyone’s susceptibility is different. If you suspect sea sickness will be an issue for you we recommend the following:

-Purchase some ‘Quease Ease’ onboard the boat
-Select a seat in the back third of the boat where there is less movement.
-Keep your body temperature on the cooler side.
-If you wear glasses keep the lenses clean at all times.
-Avoid looking through cameras or binoculars.
-Stay away from acidic foods before the cruise such as orange juice and coffee.
-Avoid going into the toilet to be sick. Confined spaces will only make you feel worse
-If you start to feel sick, let our crew know so we can assist.

Penguin Island will be closed on days for forecasted 35 degrees and over for the Little Penguins Moulting season, as per The Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and
