No certification is required to participate in the Serenity Sunday charter, because the tour is designed for both certified divers and snorkelers. You can join as a snorkeler and still visit two ocean sites, enjoy wellness touches, and experience the same small-group atmosphere as the divers on board. Certified divers will enjoy relaxed dive profiles and groups of no more than four people. If you are planning to scuba dive, bring your certification card or proof of certification to check-in. The crew can also search for your card online in advance if you call ahead. Both snorkelers and divers share the same 6.5-hour experience.

The Serenity Sunday charter includes tanks, weights, and snorkel gear for all guests, along with premium amenities like lotion, conditioner, and reef-safe sunscreen. Personal scuba equipment is not included and would need to be arranged separately if you prefer your own gear. Guests are encouraged to bring a towel, a reusable water bottle, and a warm pullover or light jacket for the ride back to the harbor. Spray sunscreen is not allowed on the boat because it creates slippery deck conditions. The on-site dive center carries sunscreen, towels, and dive and snorkel equipment if you need to pick anything up at check-in.

The Serenity Sunday charter limits the boat to a maximum of 12 guests - half the standard capacity - and keeps in-water groups to no more than four people per guide. This creates a 4:1 guest-to-guide ratio instead of the typical 6:1 ratio found on standard charters. Beyond the smaller group size, the charter is built around a wellness-focused pace that includes Hawaiian-inspired breathing techniques, mindfulness prompts, and quiet surface intervals with healthy snacks, beverages, and sea life ID books. A private guide option is also available for a fully one-on-one experience if you want even more personalized attention in the water.

Single bookings on the Serenity Sunday charter require at least 48 hours of advance notice to cancel without a full charge. Any cancellation made less than 24 hours before the scheduled departure will result in a full charge regardless of the reason. If you are booking a private charter, the cancellation window extends to seven days in advance. The operator strongly recommends dive and travel insurance to protect against unexpected situations, and specifically mentions DAN - Divers Alert Network - as a provider of reasonably priced dive-specific policies. Dive and travel insurance is especially worth considering given these strict timelines.

Scuba divers on the Serenity Sunday charter must avoid going above 2,000 feet in elevation for a minimum of 18 hours after diving, which includes both driving to high-elevation areas and flying. This is a standard dive safety requirement, not a rule specific to this operator. The operator specifically calls out this concern because the Big Island has mountainous terrain, and some accommodations or planned activities may require traveling to elevation. If you are staying somewhere above 2,000 feet or have flights or high-elevation excursions planned for the same day, this is an important factor to consider when scheduling your Serenity Sunday booking.
