This might be a good time to prepare in case you get seasick. Natural remedies include Seabands (look for them online) and ginger (candy, cookies,etc). You can also get over-the-counter seasickness drugs or even prescription patches (must be applied a day or two before you go). Also, sunscreen and hats! And appropriate clothes for any stops you might make.
Not to be a downer, but it's important to remember that many of the remote beaches outside the US don't have lifeguards. If you are caught in a riptide, you might not have help. And there isn't Life Flight. So it's good to be careful!

mask & snorkel (the water is crystal clear), insect repellant because some of the villages do have malaria, bottled water if you can manage it, don't expect a lot of amenities. You'll probably get a bed, meals and a hammock where you stay so anything more than that you'll need to bring.
