Seasickness Advice
With a little advance preparation, everyone can experience a magical day out with the whales.
Seasickness, also known as motion sickness, travel sickness, airsickness or carsickness, may occur in response to certain types of movement such as the rocking of a vessel on the ocean. Seasickness is treatable in the vast majority of individuals.
