Easy Divers is a recreational dive center and thus obliged to follow the national laws for recreational dive establishments in the Republic of Indonesia. Under no condition will the diver exceed the maximum depth limit of 40 m (even if in possession of a TEC certification). Should the diver fail to follow this out of negligence or unwillingness to cooperate, Easy Divers reserves the right to refuse any further service without compensation as well as the right to take legal action against the diver for any damages incurred to Easy Divers on grounds of not following the national law.

Pre-Conditions for Diving

In accordance with the local Indonesian law and safe diving practices, Easy Divers will not rent any diving equipment to a diver who wishes to dive without a dive guide. The diving equipment will be rented only under the condition that an Easy Divers dive guide accompanies the diver.
The dive sites shall be chosen by the dive guide on site according to the actual conditions, safety guidelines, the diver’s diving abilities and qualifications. In the event of deemed inappropriate or dangerous conditions, the dive guide will call the dive and the diver will oblige.
It is the responsibility of each diver to be in possession of the diving certificate corresponding to the level of the dives that will be carried out. In the event of false representation, Easy Divers reserve the right to deny services to the offender or cancel booked diving plans without compensation.
It is the responsibility of each diver to self-assess their diving abilities.
All divers need to sign a Risk and Liability Statement.
All divers conducting a dive course need to sign a self-assessed medical statement that they are fit to dive.
If the diver answers “YES” to any of the medical conditions on the form, a medical certificate signed by a doctor or a specialist declaring them fit for diving may be required.
Should a diver make false statements on their medical statement, Easy Divers is under no condition liable for any diving accidents involving the diver and can press charges.
Divers under the age of 18 need to provide a written parental/guardian consent allowing them to dive.
Should a dive guide judge that the immersion of a diver would pose a risk to the underwater environment at a certain or any dive site, Easy Divers reserves the right to refuse the service without compensation.
