Enhance your diving experience with our range of add-ons, designed to make your adventure with us even more memorable:
Rental Gear
Comprehensive gear available, including regulators with computers, BCDs, 7mm wetsuits in various sizes, hoods, gloves, booties, fins, masks, and snorkels. You can guesstimate your sizing and we'll prepare a bin for you to try everything on at check-in. If any item doesn't fit you well, we have a whole selection of alternatives for you.
Nitrox Tanks
Enhance your dive with 32% Nitrox tanks, blended and banked in-house. Available for $17 per tank for certified Enriched Air Nitrox (EAN) divers, with a limit of 2 per diver. They are not mandatory in any of our trips.
Group Tour Guide (Guided Experience)
While on board, our captains and deckhands provide detailed dive briefings, but our dives are unguided. Experienced divers, especially those confident in their navigation abilities, may choose to dive without a guide.
We strongly suggest considering a guide, particularly if you:
Are new to diving or haven't dived in salt or cold water before.
Prefer not to be paired with someone you haven't met before.
Are diving in a kelp forest for the first time.
Feel unsure about your navigation skills.
Looking for expert insights into the dive site.
Group guides might be shared - up to 4 divers per guide.
Private Tour Guide (VIP Guided Experience)
If you are looking for an exclusive guided experience, choose this option. A private tour guide will cater to your exact needs and be your underwater photographer!
π― We're always ready to pair you with a compatible buddy if needed, ensuring everyone has a partner.
