Great dive trip
This was my first time on an overnight dive boat and it didn’t disappoint. We did 4 dives a day including 2 night dives. The water clarity was good and there was plenty to see. I was impressed with the staff who went out of their way to make sure I had something to eat at each meal because I’m vegan.

Amazing Value, Great Crew, Clean and Efficient!!
This trip was seamless! The crew is efficient, clean, and knowledgeable. The ship always felt clean and the cabins were large enough, considering we were in confined quarters. The food was also always hot and delicious, as well as varied. Always felt safe and taken care of on board. Thanks, everyone!!!

Unforgettable
The entire trip was a highlight for me. The guys at Pro Dive and liveaboard kept me so well informed from my initial enquiry to the moment I was dropped back at my hotel. Our dive master, Raphael, had a wonderful knowledge of the reef and his love and enthusiasm for it was a real pleasure to be able to share in. The whole pro dive team shared this enthusiasm and knowledge and were all so hard working and helpful, efficient but with a real sense of fun. Anyone considering diving the Great Barrier Reef should put their dreams in the hands of these guys, it would be a safe bet and will leave you with memories that will last you a lifetime. Thanks to all at liveaboard and pro dive, hope to see you again soon.

Fantastic first live aboard which exceeded my expectations
The corals were in better condition than expected given all the news we have heard about bleaching. Although some dives were shallow, they were some of the best dives with great swim throughs, abundant fish life and colourful corals.
