How far in advance to book?

We are currently experiencing high volume in bookings; popular boats are now booked months in advance, especially on weekends and holidays. We strongly recommend contacting us as soon as possible to reserve desired boat and date. If you book last minute, your choices are limited.

How do I reserve? What is the deposit?

Depending on the boat, deposits vary from 30%-50% USD of the total. If you book a next-day tour (within 24 hours), we require 100% USD deposit. The deposit goes towards food, alcohol, and staff preparations prior to your tour.

Is dock transportation included?

No, we are more than happy to arrange private round trip door-to-door transportation. See our transportation prices here.

What if there's bad weather on the day of the tour?

The weather in the Caribbean changes a lot and often. Weather forecasts are often wrong and misleading. It could be sunny here but drizzling elsewhere. As boating experts, we keep an eye out for up-to-the-minute weather using many reliable sources. If the weather is bad (the marina closes), we'll inform you to reschedule ASAP and if not possible, we will refund your deposit 100%, no problem.

Is the deposit refundable?

We have the best refund policy at the marina. 100% refundable if weather or COVID related, so no worries.
