($) Upgrade to Wear & Keep Souvenir Socks
Wear & Keep Souvenir Socks optional upgrade can be found on the next page for those feeling nervous with the ocean animals around their feet. Donning the sustainable bamboo & cotton eco socks to wear in the lagoons is great to camouflage or protect the feet from sharp coral sand & inquisitive animals. Also a fantastic keepsake to remember an incredible Irukandji experience when worn at a later date at home ⏱ All Day
