Our voyages are to remote areas so the Captain and/or Puerto Beagle deserves the right to alter and/or cancel part or the whole voyage due to serious bad weather, and/or political circumstances in the area of the voyage, and/or any other reason beyond our control. Because of the same Puerto Beagle nor the Captain accept no responsibility for missed flights or buses nor their consequences and strongly recommend our clients that international return flights are fully flexible to allow for missed connections due to bad weather, mechanical breakdown and for any other reason whatsoever as mentioned before.

Captain’s say attending to safety reasons amongst other factors must be accepted by all crewmembers. In case of a medical problem arising during the expedition, either onboard or on shore, the responsibility belongs solely to the person itself. If for any reason an incident is not covered by the beneficiary’s travel insurance the responsibility still remains with the person and Puerto Beagle nor the skipper specifically decline any responsibility whatsoever.

These cruises are intended for people of reasonable good health and mobility commensurate with what is considered safe on a small sailing vessel where heavy weather could create violent motion as well as the inherent risk or sea sickness. Guests who are not fit for such conditions are advised not to take this cruises, as this may result in an unacceptable risk to you; may interfere with the enjoyment of the other guests on board; and may even compromise the completion of the voyage itself.
