    Schedules are always approximate and vary daily. The schedule for any given trip is at the discretion of the Cruise Director and ultimately depends on a number of factors including currents, dive Site activity, light, objective, sailing times, etc.

    We usually wake up guests later on the 1st day and conduct a general safety and procedures briefing before a check-out dive to start off the trip on a solid note. The arrangement of the dive sites is at the discretion of the Cruise Director in collaboration with the Boat Captain.
