Tripadvisor Reviews
Brisbane, Australia
I learnt to scuba dive over 5 days and I had so much fun. My instructors were Flo and Molly and they made the whole learning experience enjoyable and took away the stress of learning. Flo was a great teacher because she was patient and explained everything very clearly and those are great qualities to have from an instructor when you can't speak underwater. She put lots of effort into teaching us so that we could explore the reef with our remaining air and she would always show us the hand signs for all the fish we saw.Being on the liveaboard for 3 days was worthwhile because I made some great friends on board and was especially close with the others learning to dive with me. They catered for my friends vegan diet and the crew were friendly and fun to have around.The only disappointing part was during the course when the guy from the store came to convince us to buy all the equipment for diving. They will allow you to try on the good quality mask and fins in the pool but expect you to buy it yourself before you go on the ship. I was expecting to have access to the decent equipment as part of the deal but instead they provide you with the lower quality mask and flippers which they advised us were much inferior.

I had an awesome time on my 3-day 2-night livaboard with ProDive. I am an advanced open water diver but had never done an unguided dive before this trip and was a little nervous. There was absolutely no need to be nervous, the crew and instructors on board were very thorough, gave detailed briefings and navigational directions, checked all equipment, were very focused on safety (always logging dive times and depths and with a dedicated lookout on board), answered all questions, and even offered a guide on the night dives. I met a lovely group of divers on board and got on very well with the entire crew. The dive sites were beautiful, food on board was delicious, and overall this was a fantastic experience. I will definitely be back for another trip!
