Terms and conditions

Ocealics provides clients with a safe, enjoyable, and bonding fishing experience. Ocealics never discriminates against anyone, regardless of race, nationality, age, gender, or sexual preference. 

Ocealics understands the stress you go through during your working weeks and have made it its responsibility to provide you with an entertaining and relaxing time.

In one sentence, 

“We are here to provide and continue to provide you with an Ocealic experience!”

Our crew is experienced in traversing the seas and finding fish for the best deep-sea fishing experience, and is well-trained and certified to ensure the safety of the boat and its passengers.

Fishing trips include all the gear, bait, fuel, ice, and drinks throughout the trip. Furthermore, all safety equipment is readily available, such as life jackets (always mandatory for children up to 10 years of age), fire extinguishers, flares, first aid kits, etc. 

 Sea sickness (motion sickness) can occur to anyone when on board a sea vessel. It is highly recommended to take an OTC medication prior to departure, available in most pharmacies without a prescription.

Upon reserving a fishing trip slot, the slot shall be reserved for 48 hours. If payment is not made before the 48 hours elapse, the booking is canceled. Ocealics reserves the right to determine a shorter period where appropriate.

Subject to your choice, full payment must be made through bank transfer or through the payment link provided by Ocealics in advance to secure and confirm the booking. 

In cases of cancelation, no-shows, or terminating the trip by the passengers for any reason, no refund will be made, and due amounts will still be due in full. 

On the day of the trip, the crew can only wait for 15 minutes after the start time of the trip for all guests to arrive. Failure to arrive within 15 minutes of the start time is deemed a no-show and will be treated accordingly.

If the crew deems seas not safe for sailing, Ocealics may cancel the trip at any time, including on-spot cancellation. If Ocealics cancels the trip, passengers are entitled to a reschedule or a full refund, subject to their preferred choice.

All persons shall always comply with all environmental, fishing, health, and safety laws and rules applicable. Ocealics may terminate the trip immediately in the event of unacceptable conduct by any passenger.

1. Exposure to sun, rain, lightning, sea spray, and any other weather conditions;
