We understand that plans change. Our cancellation policy is designed to be as fair as possible while accounting for the operational realities of running ocean-based activities.
Operator Cancellations (Weather and Conditions)
If Mirissa Collective cancels your activity due to weather conditions, sea conditions, or any other circumstances within our control, you will receive a full refund — no questions asked. You will also have the option to reschedule at no additional cost.
We take this seriously. We do not cancel lightly, and when we do, you are always fully protected.
