Does Openwater take over my trips?

No. Your trips stay yours: your dates, prices, terms, and your call on how bookings are approved. Openwater handles the booking, payment and paperwork plumbing.

What does it cost a dive center to list?

Come talk to us at the booth and we will walk through the current terms in plain language, including the platform fee and how payouts work.

I am a diver. Do I need an account to look at trips?

No. Browsing is open. Registering interest needs only an email address; you create an account when you book.

Can I book a trip at the booth?

You can start at the booth and finish on your phone. Either way, the payment schedule and cancellation terms are in front of you, and you agree to them at checkout, before any money moves.

Find Your Dive, Find Your People: Openwater at DEMA 2026

Openwater Trips is a booking platform for operator-led dive travel. At DEMA Show 2026 in New Orleans (Booth 3336, November 3 to 6) the team is meeting dive centers and divers: centers can claim their listing and publish trips, and divers can find hosted trips as operators publish them, run by the people who know the water.
