Dives and the Open Water course

For the reef dive and the five-dive pack, yes. Bring your card or have the app on your phone. If you are not certified, the Open Water course gets you there in three days.

Tanks, weights, and a guide on every boat dive. Rental gear is extra, about $45 a day for a full set. Everything is included on the Open Water course.

The captain decides the evening before and emails you. If we cancel, you pick another day or take a full refund. October can bring a few windy days when a front comes through, so leave yourself a spare morning if you can.

You buy it once and get a pass code. Each time you want to dive, book the 8am boat with your code. It is good for twelve months, so you can use some this trip and the rest next year.

About 82 to 84 degrees in early October. Most people dive in a 3mm suit or a rash guard. It cools into the mid 70s by January.

Plan on at least 18 hours between your last dive and your flight, and 24 if you have dived several days in a row. If you fly out Sunday morning, make Friday your last dive.
