Please make sure you have adequate insurance. Customers have been known, due to unforeseen circumstances, to cancel all or part of their diving holiday. This is not something Scapa Flow Diving Holidays can be liable for and we recommend you take out adequate holiday insurance with this in mind, as a refund cannot be considered in this instance and any monies due for the charter will be collectable. If however owing to circumstances out of our control we cannot provide the charter booked or arrange an alternative, we will refund all monies paid to Scapa Flow Diving Holidays and the client will have no further claim against us.
