All visitors are subject to search prior to entering the security zone. Visitors are encouraged to bring as few items as possible when arriving for their tour, as there is no on-site storage. Flat-heeled, closed-toe shoes are required for tours aboard ships. 
 
Prohibited items on board include the following:
- Weapons: including knives, firearms and club weapons
- Defensive chemicals or sprays: including mace and pepper spray; spray cans of any type
- Fireworks, flammable liquids or other explosives
- Drugs and drug-related paraphernalia illegal by federal standards, including cannabis
- Large bags, including backpacks, diaper bags and large camera bags (small camera bags and small handbags may be permitted, but are subject to search)
- Strollers
 
While general photography of this event is allowed, the use of drones in the area of Navy vessels is strictly prohibited.
 
Due to the nature of U.S. Navy ships, those with limited mobility, or those who require walkers or wheelchairs, may not be allowed on ship tours for their safety. In these cases, the Navy will facilitate a pierside brief.
