Safety

Upon arrival at the harbour, a safety briefing is conducted by the tour guide. After breakfast we move down to the harbour and once on-board, a demonstration is given on how to effectively use your life vest.

The location of all safety and emergency equipment is pointed out to passengers. An emergency flow chart (step-by-step emergency guide) is situated inside the cabin, and clearly visible to all passengers.

All our facilities, ie vessel, cage, safety and medical equipment, are inspected by authorities on a regular basis. This ensures that all our safety equipment is always current. Our vessel has state of the art navigation equipment and our medical equipment includes oxygen and fluid replacement. We work in close association with Western Cape Paramedic Services, providing a 24 hour helicopter rescue and ambulance service.

Crew Qualifications

Our crew are medically qualified to deal with any emergency and have a Level II and Level III First Aid Certificates. Our Medics regularly work with the Western Cape Paramedic Services on motor accident scenes, thus staying current with the latest methods of treatment. Our dive masters both have PADI professional liability cover.
