Wakehouse Field Notes
Choose secure swimwear that stays comfortable during a seated water start, a fall, and the climb back aboard. A fitted rash guard or sun shirt can add coverage without creating loose fabric around the guest.
Miami sun and glare remain part of the day even between riding sets. Bring sun protection, a towel or light layer when requested, secured sunglasses, and only the personal items you can store safely on the boat.
01 / Field Guide
Wear swimwear that stays in place during a water start and a fall. The first attempts involve sitting in the water, bringing the board to the feet, standing, and climbing back onto the boat. Comfort and security matter more than a complicated outfit.
A rash guard or fitted sun shirt can add coverage. Avoid loose pieces that may catch, shift, or become distracting while riding.
02 / Field Guide
Use the sun protection that works for you before arriving and bring more for reapplication. A hat helps while seated on the boat, but should be secured when the boat is moving. Sunglasses are useful between sets and should have a retainer.
The reflection from Biscayne Bay can make the sun feel stronger. Hydration and shade breaks remain useful even on a shorter outing.
03 / Field Guide
Bring a towel or light layer if the product instructions request it, a protected phone, and only the valuables you need. Wakehouse provides wakesurf equipment and required safety gear for the selected outing.
Avoid glass, strongly staining food or drinks, and loose items that are difficult to secure. Check the confirmation for product-specific guidance before departure.
04 / Field Guide
Early and later outings may feel cooler once a guest is wet, so a light cover layer can help. Midday outings require stronger attention to sun exposure. Footwear is typically most useful for marina arrival and should be easy to store aboard.
The same secure swimwear foundation works across outing times. Adjust the layers and sun protection to the confirmed forecast.
