The following are recommended to ensure safety and an enjoyable adventure:
- Carry adequate water for all participants and a hand towel to wipe your brow when navigating the trails.
- If you are planning on watching the sunset, always bring a torch (preferably not just an app on your phone) to ensure you can clearly see the path beneath your feet. The light should be bright enough to illuminate the pathway for everyone.
- Most importantly, before setting out, notify the resort’s front office so they are aware of your hike, and upon returning, inform them that all members of your party have safely returned.
- Check with the resort’s activities team for tide information or specific trail conditions to avoid being caught in the tide.
- Consider hiring a guide for more challenging hikes, sunset climbs, or exploring unfamiliar areas.
- Observe cultural etiquette when visiting nearby villages, showing respect for local customs and traditions.
