BOOKING CONDITIONS

Course Booking Conditions

All course participants must meet the following requirements and agree to the terms below:

Eligibility

  • Participants must be at least 12 years old, unless enrolling in programs like Bubble Makers or Seal Team (minimum age: 8).
  • You must have your own transport for the duration of the course.
  • Many dive sites are located within National Parks. Please ensure you obtain a valid parks pass
    Parks Pass:
    👉 https://passes.parks.tas.gov.au
  • All courses are taught in English only. For safety reasons, no translation is permitted — no exceptions.

Medical and Swim Requirements

  • You must complete a medical questionnaire. Depending on your responses, you may be required to obtain clearance from a doctor.
  • If you are 45 years or older, a diving medical with a doctor is mandatory.
  • You must be able to swim 200 metres and float for 10 minutes unassisted.
  1. These tests are conducted on Day 1 of the course.
  2. Failure to pass will result in course cancellation without refund.
  3. Not bringing swim gear is not a valid excuse.
  4. Re-testing may be scheduled at an additional fee of $150/hour (minimum 1 hour, calculated from staff departure and return to Hobart).


Payments, Refunds & Rebooking

  • A non-refundable deposit of $245 per person applies to all course bookings.
  • Cancellations within 30 days of the original booking are eligible for a partial refund:
    Example: $645 course – $245 deposit = $400 refund
  • No refunds will be given within 14 days of the course start date, regardless of reason.
  • If you fail a diving medical and provide documentation to info@godivetassie.com.au, you will receive a partial refund, less the $245 deposit.

Combo Course Refunds

If you cancel a Combo Course (a multi person package) but wish to downgrade to a lower-value course instead of cancelling completely, we will calculate your refund based on the difference in course values, minus the non-refundable $245 deposit.

Example:
You booked a 4 Person Combo Course valued at $1999, but decide to downgrade to a 3 Person Combo Course valued at $1575.

  • Price difference: $1999 – $1575 = $424
  • Less non-refundable deposit: $424 – $245 = $179 refund

So, your total refund would be $179.

The refund will be provided to the original purchaser and payment method.

Please note: No refunds will be given for combo course cancellations made within 14 days of the course start date.

Date Changes & No Shows

  • Changing course dates within 14 days of the start date will incur a $245 rebooking fee per person.

This can be done once only. Further changes require full course re-payment.

  • Not attending or not completing the course will also incur a $245 rebooking fee (valid once within 12 months).

After that, full payment is required for re-enrolment.

Course Access & Communication

  • After booking, we will contact you via email or phone to confirm your details and issue access to your online learning materials.
  • Please check your spam/junk folder. If you do not hear from us, it is your responsibility to contact info@godivetassie.com.au.
  • You will be required to complete waiver and participant forms before the course start date. These are mandatory — no exceptions.

Buy Now – Choose Dates Later (Gift Voucher Conditions)

  • This option is treated as a gift voucher, valid for 3 years from the date of purchase.
  • To redeem, you must provide the original receipt, which contains all necessary information to confirm your booking.
