Bring your certification card
You must show proof of certification at the gate—carry a paper backup or validated digital card.
Dive with a buddy
All dives are buddy dives; plan profiles and surface intervals together before entering the water.
Pack spare parts
Bring spare O-rings and mask straps—repairs are easier on land than mid-day in the water.
Plan surface intervals
Use the scheduled window to space dives properly; long day access encourages multiple dives but requires disciplined intervals.
Complete personal scuba kit (BCD, regulator, tank)
Bring your full setup—there are no rentals on site and you’ll need reliable kit for multiple dives.
Dive computer
Tracks no-decompression limits and surface intervals for back-to-back dives during the long day.
Wetsuit or drysuit
Thermal protection varies with season; have appropriate exposure protection for comfort and safety.
Mask, fins, snorkel and backup straps
Personal fit gear reduces issues; bring a spare strap or mask to avoid interruptions.
