Reservation Policy: A minimum deposit of 25% is required to confirm space on an overnight sailing adventure, and Cruise-and-Learn courses, with the balance due 60 days prior to the departure date.

Cancellation Policy for Cruises: If you cancel your reservation more than 30 days prior to departure you will be charged 10% of the total fee. If you cancel your reservation within 15 to 30 days of departure you will be charged 25% of the total fee. If you cancel less than 15 days for an overnight sailing adventure or cruise and learn there is no refund unless we find another guest to replace you.

Cancellation Policy for Day Sails: If you cancel your reservation within 15 days of departure you will be charged 25% of the total fee. If you cancel less than 4 days prior to departure for a Half-Day or Full-Day Sail there will be no refund also unless we find someone else to replace you.

Cancellation due to weather: It happens rarely, but if the cancellation is due to extreme weather and therefore the fault of no one, we will try to reschedule the booking to a convenient time for both parties (for no extra charge). If that is not possible due to scheduling problems then you will receive a full refund minus 10% for banking and processing fees.
The decision for weather cancellation will be made by a representative of Blackfish Sailing Adventures on the day of the booking. The main consideration will be based on safety and not whether it is just cloudy with showers.
We will not go out if the conditions present a danger to the safety of those on board.

Payment: We accept cash, personal check, Master Card, and Visa. Most products can be purchased online HERE.
However, some trips take a degree of customization so we will have to work with you to to establish the details then determine the appropriate payment options.
We also take Interac email money transfers (e-Transfers)- a very convenient method if you do internet banking. If unfamiliar with this method, your bank can give you information (only available between Canadian institutions). Note that all Prices are in Canadian dollars and are subject to a 5% tax.
