Smoking onboard

It is not allowed to smoke in the cabins and in the salon.
Please use ashtrays and don’t throw cigarette butts in the sea.
Cigarette filters are non biodegradable and with time may damage the reefs or harm marine life.
It is also not unheard of that an unwary smoker threw a cigarette that fell into the RIB setting it on fire.

Safety procedures

As for the safety onboard, life jackets, life rafts, many floating devices are available. You can find fire extinguishers in the cabins, salon and engine room.
Upon your arrival onboard, please familiarize yourself with the location and operating methods of the safety devices.

Diving equipment

It is mandatory that each diver has the following equipment and papers:
Dive computer and decompression table, depth gauge and watch, a surface signaling device (SMB), snorkel, a medical certificate not older than one year, diving certificate, a regulator with alternate air source, torch and a weight belt even with integrated weight jackets.

Diving experience

Marine Park destinations require a minimum level of experience of at least 50 logged dives and the last one shouldn’t be older than one year. If you fail to meet these requirements, the dive guides are entitled to stop you from going on certain dives, or the routing might be subject to change accordingly.

Footwear onboard

It is forbidden to use road shoes onboard. Please take with you bathroom shoes, warm socks, or light sailing shoes.

Salon

Diving equipment are not allowed into the salon or the cabins.
The salon and cabins are strictly dry areas due to the difficulty of drying moisture stains on the material.

Shower and toilets

Bathroom towels are provided to our guests as well as bathrobes.
Still, we recommend bringing your own towel for use outside the cabin.
Please don’t use too much shampoo and soap because shower water eventually ends up in the sea. It is better to buy world known ecologically friendly products that don’t affect the environment. Please help us preserve nature.
Please don’t throw anything in the toilet bowls, including toilet paper and sanitary pads, to avoid toilet blocks and damage to the eco system. Garbage bins are placed in the toilets especially for that purpose.

Cabins

Each cabin has portholes. We suggest that you open them as often as possible to let in fresh air to compensate for the air condition circulating the air. However, make sure you close the portholes while the boat is sailing.

Food & Drinks

Apart from coffee, tea & water, several kinds soft drinks, and beer and local wines are available for purchase onboard of liveaboard. Wine is needed to ask before come!

Needless to say, we provide full board accommodation (3 meals and 1 snack) for all our clients during their stay onboard.

Sleeping on deck

It is not allowed to take bed sheets, covers or mattresses out of the cabin on the deck.
If you wish to sleep outside, please bring with you a sleeping bag and use the mattresses from the sundeck.

Health onboard

Onboard we only have basic emergency medication. If you feel the need may arise for any special medication during the trip, please take a small supply with you.
In any case don’t forget stomach and diarrhea medication, sea sickness tablets or plasters and ear drops and please make sure it will not affect your ability to dive.

Rental and spare equipment

Rental equipment is normally unavailable onboard. We suggest if you need any rental equipment that you rent it from home or contact us beforehand.
We also suggest that you should have the most important spare parts with you like mask and fin straps and the repair kit for your type of regulator. Please think as well about batteries, seals and bulbs for your torch.

Gratuities

The live-aboard business is a service industry, and although the general public is seldom aware of it, gratuities are a major part of a crewmember’s salary. Few other recreational activities rely so heavily upon the professionals in charge for your enjoyment and safety. A gratuity of 5% is customary, but many leave more when they feel the service was outstanding. If you are disappointed with the service, you should inform the Captain of your feelings right away so he may rectify the situation. Leave no more gratuity than you feel is right.
