Suitability

Who it's for

Who this charter suits — and who should look elsewhere.

1
Advanced-certified diversWell suited: the trip visits advanced reef sites beyond 60 feet and is designed for divers with advanced training and experience.
2
Groups & families of certified diversIdeal for small groups or families who want a private, shared dive experience and control over pace and logistics.
3
Nitrox-certified diversA good match: nitrox equipment and certification are listed among recommended gear, indicating the operator expects or supports nitrox use on deeper dives.

New or uncertified diversNot recommended: sites are advanced and the operator requires dive certification cards (including nitrox and advanced where applicable), making this unsuitable for novices.
