If you leave during the day we generally recommend exploring with a buddy. We also know that sometimes you just want space. Use your judgment and if you'll be gone for a while let someone know. If you want to leave at night, please let Marie, Candice or Katie know. We ask that you are with a buddy(or group) and a working cell phone with a full charge.

 

On the beach- do not leave valuables unattended.Mostly it's all just simple common sense you'd use at home!

All things food related...

The food AND the restaurant staff at RipJack are AMAZING. If you have any special dietary requirements or allergies you will ask about these at the restaurant. They are always helpful and will do their absolute best to accommodate whatever you need. If you think your needs are a bit more specific, please let us know.
