A foam board is usually the sensible choice for a beginner unless the provider advises otherwise.
Check whether the wetsuit is included or hired separately before assuming the day price covers both.
Ask whether overnight or multi-day use is permitted if you are not returning the kit the same day.
Hiring equipment is not a substitute for a lesson if you still need instruction or water-safety guidance.
