🌅
Golden Hour is King
Early morning and late afternoon light transforms every photo. Book early tours for the best light on the pigs!
🤿
Go Underwater
Some of the best shots are below the surface. The 150ft visibility here is insane for underwater photography.
🎨
Wear Bright Colors
Turquoise water + white sand = wear coral, yellow, or white to really pop against the backdrop.

Drone Shots
If you have a drone, the aerial views of sandbars and swimming pigs are absolutely incredible.
⏰
Beat the Crowds
First boat to the pigs gets the cleanest shots. Book early morning tours for empty beaches.
