Important Notes

• On regular diving days, we have scheduled 3 dives. This is because these days typically involve deeper dives and longer distances between the islands. When circumstances permit, our Cruise Leader may also include a bonus night dive. Please note that this doesn’t apply to the Trip Departure day and the Trip Return day.
• This trip is scheduled to start at 2 pm, trip departure day. If your domestic flight arrives after 12:00, then we request you arrive the day before, NOT on the trip departure day.
• For Hotel pick-ups, we will only arrange transfers exclusively for designated local hotels. If your hotel is not included in this list, you will be responsible for organizing your transfer from the hotel to the specified pick-up location.
