Amazing experience on my first time ever scuba diving - especially thanks to outstanding Sofia! - I gave myself a push and chose the option to go scuba diving for the first time in my life. As I had no experience whatsoever, I was grateful that the preliminary instructions on the boat were easy to follow even for not-so-quick-witted me.
But my actual luck was that my instructor who accompanied me in the water was a super-patient, competent, and well-spirited young woman called Sofia. She guided me for well over 30 minutes through the breathtaking scenary under water, let me make a lot of stops so that I could adjust to the pressure in the ears, and pointing me me to all the beautiful fauna and flora, including a huge variety of fish species and even a water turtle. It was an experience of a lifetime, and I am so very grateful that was able to share it specifically with Sofia. At the end Sofia also gave me a certificate for my first time ever scuba diving.
I can hardly recommend this experience enough. You won't regret it.

An unforgettable experience - We left Cairns around 9, and sailed for an hour and a half to the pontoon. During the trip we had hot tea or coffee and donuts. I am a certified diver and I signed up for a dive. The dive was shallow (10 meters), they had a deeper wall dive that I elected not to do. After the dive we were served a delicious lunch. In the afternoon I snorkeled and took a glass bottom boat ride. All included in the cost.
The snorkeling was some of the best I’ve seen.
The return trip was smooth sailing and we were served snacks. The staff were very helpful.
If you are coming to Australia and are a certified driver this trip is a must.
