As with any boating trip you will want to have sunscreen, hat and sunglasses.  We will be walking in the woods so insect repellent and tennis shoes or hikers are recommended.  During the summer months, we often swim from shore.  I suggest wearing a bathing suit under your clothes. We provide sodas, water and lite snacks.
