How the reservation actually works
The booking form does one job: it tells us you are coming, on which date, and on which of the five trips. No card number, no deposit, no online payment step. We ask for a name, the number of divers, your hotel and a phone number we can reach.
After that the sequence is always the same. We confirm the reservation, and then the evening before your trip we contact you with the exact morning pickup time for your hotel. We give that time only at the last moment because it depends on where you are staying and who else is on the route that day. The minibus collects you, brings you to the boat, and the day runs: safety briefing, kit fitting, two guided dives, lunch cooked on board, and back to your hotel.
Payment happens once, on board, in cash or by card. It covers everything the day includes — tank, regulator, BCD, wetsuit, mask, fins and weights, both dives, the free two-way hotel transfer, lunch, and passenger and diving insurance. There is no second bill at the end of the day. The full list sits on our prices page.
Why we ask for nothing up front
Three reasons, and none of them are marketing.
- The sea decides, not us. If wind or swell makes a day unsafe, we do not sail. Had you already paid, you would be chasing a refund for a decision you had no part in. This way there is nothing to refund.
- The medical questionnaire comes first. Every diver completes the standard diving medical questionnaire before entering the water. Pregnancy, severe asthma, heart or respiratory conditions and several other answers need a doctor's sign-off — we are not doctors and we will not guess. If something is flagged on the morning, you have lost no money: you stay aboard as a boat visitor, or you go back to the hotel.
- You should see the boat before you commit. Diving is an exercise in trust. Meeting your instructor, looking at the equipment and hearing the briefing before any money moves is a fairer order of events than the reverse.
The trade is simple: we hold your place, you turn up. If plans change, tell us — the detail is on the no-prepayment page.
What you will actually pay
Five trips, three prices. Kumköy, Kemer and Alanya are €43 each. The Side Underwater Museum day is €45. Antalya is €50, the most expensive day we run.
Every one of those figures buys two guided dives, so the honest arithmetic is roughly €21.50 to €25 per dive, with equipment, transfer, lunch and insurance already inside the number. We do not add an equipment surcharge for beginners, a fuel supplement, or a transfer fee for hotels along the coast.
Someone in your group who does not want to dive can come along as a boat visitor at a reduced rate. We do not publish that figure, so ask when you reserve and we will tell you well before the day. Certified divers have their logbook signed on board at no charge. CMAS courses run on request, with no published price or fixed schedule — those are a conversation rather than a checkout button, so raise them when you book.
