2 Tech Dives- $229-249
While we allow technical divers to join us on any of our recreational trips, we offer special technical certified only dives a couple of times a month. We welcome tech divers, decompression divers, rebreather divers, sidemount divers and scooter divers. Additionally, we allow deco/bailout bottles necessary for your dive or practice.
HOWEVER, you must carry a valid certification for the equipment and profiles you intend to dive that day. This means that your certification must be valid and non-expired.
FOR EXAMPLE: A diver carrying a CCR MOD1 card will only be permitted to dive a no-decompression profile, regardless of his open circuit certification level.
At Marissa Charters Inc, we prioritize safety and expertise in diving, and we want to ensure that all our clients have the necessary qualifications to enjoy a safe and fulfilling diving experience with us. If you have any questions about specific certifications or equipment requirements, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team for further clarification.
