People show up with just a towel and maybe a phone, and then realize they are missing the basics that make the day comfortable. Sun protection is the one that gets overlooked the most. The glare off the water is strong, and even on breezy days, you do not feel how much sun you are actually getting until later. Another common item is water. It sounds simple, but once you are out there swimming, walking, and just relaxing for a couple of hours, you go through it faster than expected. Food is another one. Even something small like snacks makes a big difference because there is nowhere to just grab something once you are on the island. People also forget dry storage or waterproof bags, so phones and keys end up getting sandy or wet when they did not plan for it. To make yourself the most comfortable, prepare like you are spending a half day outside with no convenience stops.
