Our Easy-To-Understand Booking Policy
People Over Profit Policy
We reserve the right to look at customers’ issues individually to accommodate them as best as we can, even when we need to contradict any of the other clauses in this policy in order to do so.

Dive charters/shore diving qualification and experience
Only certified divers can go scuba diving on our boat charters. Snorkeler and freedivers can join without the use of scuba gear.
On the day of your dive, you must bring your certification card with you. We will send you back home if you can’t prove your certification.
Age requirements
Children under 10 can come on the boat and snorkel, but they can’t dive. Divers between 10 and 15 years old need to be accompanied by a certified parental guardian or tour guide. Divers 16 and older can come solo.
Credit card charges and safety
Your credit card will be charged as soon as your reservation is completed. In case of cancellation or changes, we'll contact you before making any refunds or charges to your card.
We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt your credit card and other sensitive information when you make reservations with us. The process of encryption prevents unauthorized individuals from viewing your information as it's securely transmitted over the internet. Once received, your credit card information is not transmitted over the internet again.
