FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Following are answers to some of the most common questions and concerns:

Can I do a Scuba Tour if I haven’t been diving lately? Yes. However, the dive industry recommends that you take a refresher course after six (6) months or maximum one (1) year without diving. If it’s been a while or you feel unsure about your skills, kindly consider taking the PADI Reactivate program to review and master the best safety practices and skills.
Can I join a Scuba Tour with certain advanced skills that I’ve never done before? Yes, but we require that you pay a $25 Introduction Training Fee to include a basic training preparation and assistance for your safety. For example, if you are a certified diver that has never done a boat dive, drift dive, wall dive, night dive, or other advanced specialties as such, this is a simple way for you to learn new skills under direct instruction and supervision of our certified professionals.
Can certified children join a Scuba Tour without a guardian adult? Yes, anyone between 10-18 years old can participate independently. However, to go by themselves they are required to know how to swim and must have their guardian’s signed approval.
Is the service provided in a confined or open water environment? The experience begins in confined water environment to safely begin and adapt. Weather permitting, the tour then explores further and deeper into open water environments.
Are refunds granted if one cannot perform the activity? No. Our guides truly make the best effort to assist our guests and deliver on our mission as “Diver’s Best Friend”. However, there are many factors that are out of our control like the weather, visibility, temperature, marine life encounters, people’s comfort level in the water, etc. and this is in no way a service shortcoming on behalf of Scuba Dogs.
Is the equipment properly sanitized? Yes. After all the gear is washed in our freshwater rinse tank with high-contact items like masks, snorkels, and regulators, then transferred into a sanitizing bucket mixed with bleach to fully disinfect before reuse.
