Policies
  • Charters leave promptly at the posted time regardless of what the internet forecasts might predict. Only the Captain can cancel a charter and often times the forecast and what we see “on the dock” don’t agree. In the rare event of a cancellation we will try to contact you by the preferred method you selected when signing up.

  • If you choose not to show up or are running late and miss the boat you are not entitled to any refund or credit.

  • If you cancel 7 or more days prior to the charter we can offer a full refund.

  • If you cancel with 2-6 days of notice we can offer you 50% credit toward another charter within a year.

  • If you cancel less then 2 daysbefore the charter then we can’t offer any refund unless we can fill your space with another passenger. If your space is filled we can offer you 50% credit toward another charter within a year.

  • Promotionally priced or specialty charters are not refundable.

  • We don’t usually have extra gear on board, so if you forgot something you might be sitting out the dives. Double check your gear before we push away from the dock!

  • We’re happy to try to accommodate your special requests (like fish counting, stopping to photograph sea lions, etc) and we work hard to be flexible but sometimes there are regulations or logistical problems that make it impossible. Please ask us as early as possible!

  • Being seasick sucks. Even if you think you don’t get seasick you still might; we have lots of experience beating seasickness. Check out our seasickness section for info on what to take and when to take it!

  • If you don’t have a buddy let us know when you signup, we’ll try and pair you up with someone cool and let you both chat before the trip. We can’t always find everyone a buddy; if we can’t match you up you’ll need to signup for a Divemaster Guided dive. The closer to the trip you sign-up the less likely it will be to find you a buddy!

  • Getting Banned. We hate having to spoil anyone’s fun but if your dive style, attitude, physical fitness, equipment, etc puts yourself or other divers at undue risk we’ll have to have words. If it keeps happening, you’ll get `das boot`!

  • Non-divers are welcome to come along at the charter price if there is space and they’re over 15 years old (no…our crew isn’t free babysitting!). But, please think about this! Your friend may have an awesome time checking out the wildlife. Or your non-diving buddy might not be a boat person - they may be bored and queasy all day and you’ll lose a buddy! The Aquarium, Fisherman’s Wharf, and all the cool areas of Monterey are tons of fun and then you all can get together for lunch to swap stories!
