Local Charters

 

During the warmer half of the year we work with independent captain Matt Cetin aboard his charter boat Dive One to provide transportation to Lake Champlain’s beautiful collection of wrecks and underwater geology. These charters begin in June and run through mid-October.

Weeknight single-tank charters meet at Waterfront Diving Center. Those needing a complete set of rental equipment should arrive at least ONE HOUR before the briefing. The dive briefing is 30 minutes before the boat leaves the dock.

Two tank dives are held on the weekends. Meeting times and locations vary. The dive briefing is 30 minutes before the boat leaves the dock. All divers should be prepared to dive by time of briefing. Dives held at Converse Bay will have the dive briefing on the boat.

We offer dives to accommodate all levels of experience. Although a Dive Master or Instructor is onboard for many of our charters, our dives are NOT guided dives. After a briefing, it is expected that divers are capable of planning their dive and diving their plan. Divers wishing to dive a location listed as Advanced must be Advanced certified and have logged cold water experience and have their own lights. A pony bottle or redundant air source is strongly advised. All dives are expected to adhere to NAUI Safe Diving Practices.

If you have any questions about the appropriateness of a dive based on your skill level, please feel free to speak to one of our helpful staff. 

Single tank charters start at $80 and two-tank charters start at $125 for local destinations and $150 for destinations further away. Payment is required at registration. Prices do not include rental fees. Rental equipment is offered at a discounted rate for charters. Equipment reservations should be made at time of registration.

Please be sure to call ahead to book your spot on the boat, spaces fill-up quickly. We book a maximum of 6 people and need a minimum of 4.

Please Note: Locations and dates subject to change. Special charters - time varies. Any cancellations due to weather will be made 1 hour before the briefing on the day of the charter. Refunds will be issued for weather cancellations
