Terms and Conditions exclusive to Junior Nomad Surf Camps for Teenagers organised by Nomad Surfers

 

Supervision

Our staff will supervise the teens during extra activities, at the surf school area and surf camp area. As soon as the teens leave the accommodation or the area of the activities without permission, it is no longer our responsibility.

 

Excursion

At some point in all excursions, children are given “free time” for shopping for souvenirs, having a snack, etc., in a designated area. During this time, not all children are with the staff. The following explains our supervision policy on excursions:

 

Always be in groups of a minimum of three children.

All children will be given emergency phone numbers.

Meeting points and times will be established and shown to the children.

The maximum amount of time between meetings will be 90 minutes.

 

If you prefer that he/she be accompanied by a monitor at all times during excursions, please indicate this preference in writing to us before the start of the Camp. If we do not receive your written instructions to the contrary, we will assume you agree with the above supervision policy.

 

Smoking and drinking alcohol

Your children are not allowed to smoke or drink alcohol at any time. This policy is reiterated very clearly to all teens on the first evening of camp. This policy applies to all children at camp, whether or not they are allowed to smoke or drink at home, and whether or not they are legally old enough to smoke or drink in the country of the camp. Should your child smoke or drink alcohol at camp, the camp monitor will contact you immediately to discuss what action he or she feels is appropriate in the specific circumstances.

 

The Camp monitor may feel that a strong warning is more appropriate, on the understanding that a second violation of the rule will result in your child being sent home, at your expense, and there will be no refund. In this case, the camp monitor will look for your support and ask that you explain the situation very clearly to your child by telephone in order that there is no misunderstanding. It is very important that you discuss this policy with your child before he or she travels to camp, in order that he/she fully understands the implications of smoking or drinking alcohol at camp.

 

Possession or use of illegal drugs

Should your child possess or use any drugs at the Camp, other than those prescribed for medical reasons, he/she will be sent home immediately at your expense, and no refund. We reserve the right to also notify the police given the seriousness of this matter.

 

Damage to property

It is important that children treat the property of the Camp and its suppliers with the greatest of care and respect. Any damages resulting from negligence, even if accidental, will be invoiced to the parents or guardians, who, as part of the booking conditions, agree to this stipulation. Where individual guilt cannot be accurately assessed, damages will be shared amongst those involved and families invoiced accordingly. If they lose the room key, they have to pay 10 € for a new one.

 

In case of vandalism, bad behaviour (not respect rules/ not respect other kids or teachers, etc.) the kids will be expelled from the camp next day without the refund for the rest of stay/ and pay the cost of broken property.

 

Insurance

All surf schools have accident insurance required by law in all countries. If anyone gets hurt while surfing they will be taken to hospital and will be treated. This is not a travel insurance so we do recommend travel insurance if travelling to another country. 

 

Making a booking with us will automatically add your email address to our subscribers list to receive further promotions.

MEDICAL: I confirm that I have no current or historic illness, disease or medical condition, which could lead to the injury of myself, any other kiters or employee of Sick Dog SurfI am happy to complete the “Medical Statement” that is a requirement laid down by the Egyptian Authorities. If I am in doubt as to my health, past or present and the effect this may have on my safety, I agree to be independently examined prior to diving. I agree not to drink any alcoholic beverages before I dive. I give Sick Dog Surf my permission to stop me from kiting should I drink any alcoholic beverages before diving or if I am still under the influence of alcohol before kiting. I agree not to kite after use of medication or when feeling unwell.

EMERGENCY: I agree to bear all the costs of medical treatment, chamber costs, recovery and transport charges in the event of an accident. Should the case arise that I am unable to decide for myself I authorize Sick Dog Surf and their agents to arrange medical treatment on my behalf. I will provide Sick Dog Surf with details of my insurance company, policy number and Medical Emergency Telephone number. I do understand that if any accident happens, it might take some time to reach a medical centre, so I will abide to safety standards and listen carefully to the instructions of Sick Dog Surf employees.

BOAT SAFETY: Extra due care and attention is required when kiting, operating and living on boats due to the increased hazard of, but not restricted to, movement in rough seas, wet decks and equipment movement. I undertake to take extra care whilst on board a boat and will not hold Sick Dog Surf responsible for any damages incurred that can be attributed to normal boating hazards. I accept the increased risk of kiting near to and from boats and Zodiac & Inflatables and accept that extra care and vigilance is required on my behalf.

NATURE: I understand that there is marine life that may cause bodily injury if touched or harassed and therefore I agree not to feed, touch or harass the marine life.

EQUIPMENT: Sick Dog Surf maintains kitesurfing equipment for service on a rental basis. This equipment is not in any way guaranteed either as to correct construction or safe use. Parties renting and using this equipment will do so entirely upon their own judgment and at their own risk. I have inspected the equipment and find that is in good working order and free from defects. I agree to return the equipment at the end of the rental period in the same condition, fair wear and tear expected, and will be responsible for the loss or damage to the said equipment including freight charges and import duty. Equipment returned late is subject to a late charge. No refunds will be paid due to non-use of equipment. Rentals are per 24-hour or part period. A security deposit is required on all rentals. Sick Dog Surf is not responsible for any damages or losses of any equipment whether the property of the client or Sick Dog Surf. I agree that Sick Dog Surf will not be held liable or responsible for an injury I sustain as a result of not adhering to the above items.

INSURANCE: Sick Dog Surf is an Egyptian company and comes under Egyptian law. There is no third-party liability insurance of European standards available in Egypt and hence Sick Dog Surf insist that guests have adequate personal kiting and non-kiting insurance to cover all kiting and non-kiting risks involved in the service provided by Sick Dog Surf. IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY to check that my insurance provides adequate cover and that I kite within the limits of the cover provided. We also advise that it is important to have good travel insurance to cover accidents of a general nature.
