Great value Liveaboard to experience the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef
This was a wonderful experience on the Great Barrier Reef on a reasonably appointed vessel. It is not a luxury Liveaboard, but the price reflects that. Our cruise was about 50% backpackers highlighting the target audience - people seeking good value and great experiences. The good - the crew was excellent. Kevin our dive supervisor was the highlight with a great sense of humor and providing good details during the dive briefings. The food was good and there was definitely plenty to not go hungry at any point. The dive sites were great and offered a nice variety of coral viewing and wildlife. Everything on the vessel was working well and was well maintained. Doing 11 dives in 3 days is an intense schedule, but very much worthwhile. The not so good - the vessel, particularly the diving deck and during meal times feels a bit crowded with 32 divers on board. The seating on the top deck was very basic, and there was not enough seating for everyone. The cabins are small, however you do not spend a lot of time in them aside for sleeping. The bunks are not particularly comfortable, but they are functional. Despite the listing showing Free Internet - it was never offered and not available. While it did not bother me and it was not the reason I booked this Liveaboard, just wanted to point out the inconsistency with the listing.

Would Go Back Again and Again
Can’t really say enough about how much I enjoyed this trip. Our crew really cared that we enjoy our experience. The food was good and plentiful (as was the coffee, thank you). The reef was spectacular and was, of course, the star of the show. I’d say that Pro Dive Cairns exceeded my expectations.

I’d say this was once-in-a-lifetime but it was so amazing I will be doing it again for sure.
This was a truly transformative trip on which I did things and met people I’ll never forget (and hopefully do and meet again!). The Pro Dive team is unbelievably amazing and we always felt safe, informed and having a great time.

The crew and diving experience exceeded our expectations.
The incredible gauntlet of bommies to dive though, along side, and over to view the awe-inspiring aquatic live that thrives on the Great Barrier Reef. It was great to experience how such a very International 24 guests and 6 crew members interacted and had such a great time together. The food was prepared fresh for each and every meal including desserts...so delicious.

Great Liveaboard
All the people on the ship were amazing, great group of people, crew was great very helpful and knowledgeable about everything, and very social, end of the day they were just one of us and came to hangout. The reefs they chose look spectacular and have great life on them. They definitely exceeded my expectations and made my trip to Australia 100% worth it. Would definitely dive with them again.

- Crew organization was amazing, dove locations were optimal with multiple spots to explore at each area, minimal travel between reefs.
