Preventing seasickness on board
Simple rules to follow during your first day at sea to prevent seasick
  • Choose the Right Position
    Spend time on the deck and focus on the horizon, which helps your brain process the motion more effectively.
    1
  • Hydration and Diet
    Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Avoid heavy, greasy, or spicy foods before and during your time on the boat. Eat small, frequent meals to keep your stomach settled.
    2
  • Medications and Remedies
    Take over-the-counter medications like Dramamine or Bonine before boarding. Natural remedies such as ginger (ginger tea, candies, or capsules) can be effective for some people.
    3
  • Acupressure Wristbands
    Wear acupressure wristbands, which apply gentle pressure to specific points on your wrists known to help reduce nausea.
    4
  • Fresh Air and Ventilation
    Stay in well-ventilated areas to avoid feeling stuffy or overheated. Spend time on the deck to get fresh air and reduce the sensation of motion.
    5
  • Rest and Sleep
    Ensure you get a good night's sleep before your trip as fatigue can worsen seasickness. Take short naps on the boat to help your body adjust to the motion.
    6
  • Avoid Alcohol and Caffeine
    Limit alcohol and caffeine intake, as they can dehydrate you and worsen seasickness symptoms.
    7
  • Proper Footwear and Stance
    Wear comfortable, non-slip shoes to maintain balance. Keep a wide stance and slightly bend your knees to absorb the boat's motion.
    8
  • Focus Techniques
    Engage in activities that keep your mind occupied, such as reading or listening to music, but avoid activities that require close-up focus, like staring at a phone or tablet for long periods.
