Booking Cancellation and Refund Policy
All courses and dive trips require a $100 deposit at time of booking, with the balance payable in full at or before commencement of the course or dive trip.
You are entitled to a full refund if you cancel up to 7 days before the course or dive trip commencement date. Cancellations within the 7 day period will incur a $50 cancellation fee.
Open Water Diver Course
There are occasions where students experience unexpected ear/sinus equalisation problems and physically cannot go underwater, this is not very common but it does happen. Your instructor will have techniques to assist students through this, but some people may have anatomical issues that cannot be overcome. If it is a temporary issue (i.e caused by a cold or flu) we can work around this by rescheduling. And then there are some people who "just don't like diving". Very few divers don't complete the Open Water Diver course, and most of those who do get hooked.
