Please note there are regulations
about flying or going to altitude after diving.
- Currently the rules state
that for a single no decompression dive, you should not fly/go to altitude
for at least 12 hours.
- For multiple dives you
should not fly/go to altitude for at least 18 hours.
Deep Sea Divers Den recommends
waiting a minimum 24 hours whenever possible. These are guidelines only, there
is no guarantee that these recommendations will prevent decompression sickness.
Currently there are no guidelines regarding diving after flying.
Altitude
is 300m/1000ft above sea level.
This includes going to the Atherton Tablelands, so be careful when you are booking
tours to follow your dive course/trip.
Under normal circumstances, you should be out of the water on your last dive at 12pm (midday), this should help with organising any travel plans you have after your dive trip with us.
