Absolutely amazing two days with an awesome crew.
The scuba diving for the certified divers was absolutely amazing, as well as for my friends who did a few "Try Dives". The night dive is one of the coolest things i have done in my entire life, seeing sharks and other big fish feeding as well as the crazy colors of the corals under the UV light. Drinking wine and looking at the amazing stars at night was a big plus after a day in the water. Even while snorkeling, we were able to see octopus, sea turtles, and many other fish/coral.

Highly recommend the Coral Sea Yacht
Dive Master Quentin exercised excellent instruction and good patience with his divers, all of whom had different levels of skill. The yacht provided comfortable accommodations, good food, and an intimate environment that allowed the very diverse and international group of twelve passengers to become acquainted and exchange stories. The Skipper chose excellent dive sites and freely shared his knowledge of the area -- meeting him (Todd) was a definite highlight, as were the excellent five dives!

Great cursing at Great Barrier Leaf
I could join this trip alone while other booking mostly I could apply from 2persons. On the boat, I could see many attractive guests and crews so that I enjoyed all my cruising and diving at Great Barrier Leaf. I really appreciate for all members on the boat and hope I can travel together somewhere.
