Disclaimer

Diving can kill you. Websites cannot save you. Everything on this site is reference material. Only training, professional supervision, current local information and your own judgment make a dive reasonable.

Not dive instruction or briefings

Nothing here teaches you to dive, clears you to dive, or briefs you for a specific dive. Depth figures, difficulty labels and "recommended certification" fields describe common practice at a site — they are not permission, and they may be wrong or outdated. Never dive beyond your training, and treat every figure here as a planning range to be verified with a local professional.

Not medical advice

Health-related content (decompression illness, fitness to dive, medications, pregnancy and diving, and similar topics) summarizes mainstream diving-medicine teaching for general education. It is not medical advice, does not account for your health, and is no substitute for a physician trained in dive medicine. Medical questionnaires and clearance exist for good reasons — use them.

Not emergency information

Hyperbaric-facility listings are planning reference only; operation and availability change without notice. In a suspected decompression emergency: oxygen if trained, local emergency services, and the DAN emergency line +1-919-684-9111 (or your regional network). Do not navigate to a chamber on the strength of a website listing.

Not financial or investment advice

Nothing on The Scuba Atlas is investment advice, an investment recommendation, or an opinion on the suitability of any purchase, transaction or strategy for any person. The Scuba Atlas is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, or financial planner. Cost figures on this site are broad editorial travel-planning ranges, provided for information only.

Data limits, sources and AI assistance

Facts are compiled from the sources named on each page and in Data Sources and carry per-entity confidence labels; data may be incomplete, delayed or revised — always verify against primary sources before acting. Portions of this site's content and data compilation are produced with AI-assisted research; figures are indicative and may be out of date. All photographic-style imagery is AI-generated illustration, labeled as such, and depicts the character of a subject rather than a documented scene.

Liability

All viewers agree that under no circumstances will The Scuba Atlas, its operators, partners, officers, employees, affiliates, or agents be held liable for any loss, injury or damage caused by reliance on information obtained here. By using this site you accept the Terms of Use in full.
