I'm visiting from out of town and do not have my own gear. Where should I go for gear rentals?
Tanks can be rented directly from us, but for any other gear rentals, call Jupiter Scuba Rental at (561) 614-4177. They deliver rental gear directly to the boat and will pick it back up after so you don't have to worry about it after the trip.
How deep are the dives?
We go to different sites throughout the year. On a lot of our dives we will not go to the bottom, instead we'll stop around 70ft and make our way up throughout the dive. Because we're drifting with the sharks mid water, good buoyancy is extremely important. On the dives that we will go to the bottom the max depth is 75 & 85-90ft. On these dives we'll stay on the bottom for the beginning of the dive and we'll finish drifting with the sharks while making our way up to safety stop level. ​
​
What are the onboard amenities?
Salty Too, is our 30-foot Island Hopper is quite spacious and comfortable as we limit our trips to a max of 9 divers on 3-tank dives, 12 divers on 2-tank dives and up to 12 snorkelers. We provide weights, snacks, and a variety of beverages. Sandwiches are provided on 3-tank dive trips only.
