On the morning after your arrival, a dive shop orientation will be given where guests are assigned to a boat for the length of their stay. Each boat is staffed by a divemaster and captain, which ensures that divers see a variety of dive sites throughout the week without repetition, and enables our staff to get to know each diver’s respective needs and abilities to better serve them. A briefing on diving procedures, how to sign-up for dives on the dive board and a required warm-up dive and equipment check will be given dockside prior to your first dive.
