At check all guests are required to sign a participation waiver.  You may also save yourself some time by clicking on the link and bringing a signed form for each member of your group.   You and your group are required to meet at or in front of the office (101 Fourth Street) unless instructed differently from West Coast Aquatic Safaris’ staff.  The departure group is then required to wait and walk with a staff member down to the vessel.  This leads to a safe and organized trip.
