If the port is officially closed due to weather, we’ll reschedule or refund your deposit. Your safety is our priority.

Standard policy: With 7+ days notice, 50% of the deposit is refunded (administrative and date-blocking costs apply). With less than 7 days notice, the deposit is retained in full (except unsafe weather or boat-related issues). Same-day cancellations or cancelling during the tour results in the full trip amount being charged. If the captain cancels for reasons other than unsafe weather or mechanical issues, only the time spent at sea is charged. High season (October–December): deposits are retained 100% if canceled, but you receive a credit voucher equal to the deposit amount, valid for 24 months and transferable.
