FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

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

• How is the Snorkeling 101 different from the Snorkeling Adventure? The regular Snorkeling Tour does not include a skills training session. After entering the shore, our professional guides lead the group directly into deeper waters also exploring further out to open water environment, weather permitting.
• Can children participate without a guardian adult? Yes, anyone between 6-18 years old can participate independently in the Snorkeling Adventure. However, to go by themselves they are required to know how to swim and must have their guardian’s signed approval.
• 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 service provided in a confined or open water environment? The Snorkeling Adventure explores further and deeper into open water environments, like the “Taino Reefs” zone past the “Fish Protection Wall” in the Escambrón Marine Park in San Juan or in the “Fish Tail Reef” stemming from Gilligan’s Island in Guánica.
• Is the equipment properly sanitized? Yes. After all the gear is washed in our freshwater rinse tank with high-contact items like masks and snorkels then transferred into a sanitizing bucket mixed with bleach to fully disinfect before reuse.
