For when you want sun protection but not the neck to
knee rashie.
Newbro offer a package for experienced surfers with return boat transfers to the breaks, board and
rashie hire for 200,000 rupiah (for two hours).
My sun protection starts with high SPF sunscreen, my Kaenon polarized sunglasses, a hat to keep the sun off my face, and a pretty rad Mi Ola rash guard (LOVE the Pescado long
sleeve rashie!!!).
Of course the greatest danger is the sun — lather on the sunblock, take a hat and wear
a rashie or T - shirt when you snorkel.
There's plenty of space to chill outside your room — upstairs rooms share a long balcony and get a bit of a view, and downstairs enjoy garden access, all graced with a couple of comfy wooden armchairs and a drying rack for
your rashie and bordies.
Dive master trainees do not need to buy a full set of equipment, but do need to buy or have a Mask and Snorkel, fins, wetsuit /
rashie, dive computer, dive knife and SMB.
Just to note this is a relatively conservative area and bikinis are not appropriate swimwear — boardshorts and
a rashie are more suitable for the beaches here.
Apparently the sea lice larvae get trapped under your swimsuit or
rashie, which explains my gruesome torso.
