I've done some light googling, and did come across DiveAssure, but I'm not clear that they cover lost dives due to weather (vs. medical, which is definitely covered. I did shoot them an email, to ask, though).
Does weather insurance that covers dive trip rebooking exist? I'm currently in Australia, and planning a series of dives on the east coast, starting with a liveaboard in Cairns. It's apparently cyclone season here, and I can easily imagine a weather event that causes a chain-reaction of rebooking - flights, hotels, dives - even though the flights themselves are not canceled. I've got time & an open-ended return, so I'd much prefer to re-book everything and get the trip back on track than to just cancel some chunk of it and sit around in a hotel waiting for my next flight out. But I'm not sure if there's a trip insurance plan that would cover e.g. pushing a multi-stop trip by a couple weeks in the event of a cyclone.
(Note that I'm already covered medically, and my credit card covers canceled flights.)
