Sanctuary Charters

Our `standard' trip is a two tank trip boarding at 7:30 a.m. or 1:30 p.m. However, other type trips can be arranged with different boarding times, more or fewer dives, night dives, tech dives, etc. We like doing different type trips so call or email with your questions!!

Tanks, drinks & snacks included. Morning trip boards at 7:30 & afternoon trip at 1:30. No refunds without 72 hour notice - Charters may be available during the week by request - Our tanks are steel 85's and are convertible for either DIN or K valve. If you wish to bring your own tanks AND you tell us ahead of time, then we will give you a $5 discount per tank.

Guided Dives

You will see that some trips on our schedule are `Guided Dives'.  These trips will include a Divemaster to lead

the dives, for any divers that would like that, at no additional cost!  The guided dives will not exceed 60' depth

(although we may be in proximity to deeper water if other divers want to dive deeper on their own).  This may be

a great opportunity for divers that, for various reasons, are hesitant to dive Monterey.  However, this is not a

refresher course.  If many of your scuba skills are in need of tuning up, this is not a trip for you.  But the

divemaster will be able to assist and dive with those without a lot of experience with diving in kelp, cold water,

navigating, marine life identification or boat diving or those that would just like to have a guide on the dive.

If it's been a while since your last dive or if you're unfamiliar with California diving, consider having one of our experienced dive-masters lead you on a guided tour! (guide fees are additional if it is not one of our scheduled `Guided Dives' trip).

We will be mostly UNavailable by email or phone during May while we are on vacation. However, you can view our on-line schedule and book spots yourself on-line. Just click on On-line Reservations System at the top of this page. And you can try reaching us by phone or email!
