The reefs are mostly between 70' on the inside ledge, 40' on top and 100' on the outside ledge. The boat requires Advanced Open Water certification or equivalent for the deeper dives (below 60'). All of us and 99% of the divers on the boat will be diving Enriched Air Nitrox to extend our bottom times (in some case almost doubling our dive time). The cost is $65 per boat trip and we give a $10, per diver, tip to the crew. Rental tanks and fills are available ($6 - $12 each). A hotel room runs approximately $100.
I usually make reservations 1 - 2 weeks in advanced. I can check to see if their's any room if you are interested?
I talked to the captain today firm up the plans. We are diving 2 reefs on Saturday. You only have to be open water certified to do the reef dives.
I added an afternoon trip on Saturday. We have 4 ORCA divers going on this trip. We will dive a wreck and a reef or 2 reefs on Saturday afternoon.
We will dive a wreck and a reef or 2 reefs on Sunday morning.
We have to be at the boat by 7:15 AM for the morning trips. The boat leaves promptly at 8 AM.
