Here are some examples of ourpath to the “new norm”: ● Cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched objects and surfaces multiple timesthroughout each tour ● Requiring crew to stay home when sick ● Daily temperature checks of crew ● Enhancing deep cleaning every night of the entire catamaran ● Maintaining a 6’ social distance ● Frequent hand washing and use of hand sanitizer ● Advanced sanitation of snorkel equipment ● Educating our staff on COVID-19 symptoms as well as preventative measures ● Encouraging everyone to wear cloth face coverings/buffs ● Implement Cat Cleanliness Best Practices ● Limiting the max capacity on each tour. We will remain diligent, alert and modify our practices to remain up-to-date. Safety has and always will be the most important part of our company and tour.
