Safety First
Lately, Seattle’s infamous summer weather can range from the low 70s to the high 80s with lots of clear skies. It’s important to bring the right attire to ensure you’re protected from too much sun. Be sure to pack sunscreen, sunglasses, hats, and stay hydrated with plenty of water. Meals and snacks can also be beneficial for those looking to spend a few hours or more out in the sea. For those that are susceptible to motion sickness, there are over-the-counter and natural medicine you can get at your local drug store. For those that aren’t strong swimmers, life jackets are highly recommended. Overall safety should be the utmost priority.
