Confirm the exact trip being offered
Ask for the departure location, approximate duration, passenger limit and proposed activities. Confirm whether the quote is private for your group and which vessel or vessel type is expected.
List every inclusion and exclusion
Ask about captain and crew, fuel, safety equipment, snorkeling gear, refreshments, marina or government fees and transportation. Do not assume an item is included because it appears in a photograph.
Review weather and cancellation terms
Understand when the captain makes a safety decision, how changes are communicated and what happens after a cancellation or reschedule. International travel requirements can change; verify current rules with official sources.
