Getting Here

Please keep in mind before booking: We do NOT provide transportation to/from Culebra. The flights from Culebra to the main island are low altitude flights; however, the experts at DAN still recommend 12 hours after a single dive and at least 18 hours after multiple dives or multiple days of diving. The ferry arrival and departure times are subject to change based on sea conditions.  We recommend you review our cancellation policy carefully for travel-related conditions.

For a list of travel suggestions please review our Getting Here Page

For this reason and to avoid schedule conflicts impacting your tour (or that of others on the boat), we ask that you not book flights or the ferry immediately pre- or post tour.

Tour return times are not guaranteed.
