The Reef still awesome in 2025.
A trip to the Great Barrier Reef has been a dream for years, so when the opportunity arose, I hesitated thinking that I would be saddened by the deteriorating reef. This was not the case. It is still awesome. I loved the anemone fish, Nemo, at last.

The most peaceful and beautiful trip I ever took!!
It was absolutely perfect! The conditions, the crew, the people onboard, everything lined up! I really loved the vibes and loved how it was organized. To have classes onboard I was scared they would getting in my way in my experience but that wasn’t the case! It was perfectly mapped out and I saw so much wildlife! As a student studying marine biology I highly recommend this trip where you go to site they no other boats are at! It was so peaceful and the lack of tourist everywhere made the experience that much better!

Definitely will try to have more tours with Liveboard!
Everything provided by ProDive and Liveboard was of the highest quality. Friendly crew, excellent organization, tasty food. The locations for dives and snorkeling were beautiful. All steps, from booking to leaving Cairns, were easy and nice.

Great Crew, tough conditions in early May
The crew did a great job despite rough sea conditions for our early May trip. Parker (dive leader), Carla (skipper) and the dive instructors Sarah, Manuel, and the rest of the crew did a great job trying to make sure we had a good experience despite ongoing rain and chop. The food was tasty and plentiful. The ship was clean and well kept.

10/10 Experience
My experience with Prodive Cairns was INCREDIBLE. The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and made me feel comfortable the entire time. Even when the waters were rocky, they were very supportive and made sure all of the guests were comfortable. The experience catered well to everyone regardless of experience which was an overall plus. Cannot recommend enough!!! I will be doing this again.

Cool, affordable cruise
Really enjoyed my diving experience, and met some amazing people. Obviously the best part is the scuba diving experience - they really squeeze in a lot of time. I do have some feedback - I am disappointed that all the marketing materials (specifically for the 4-day learn to scuba guides) say you have 11 dives. But that is patently false - you only have 9 dives if you are doing the learn-to-scuba cruise, because you can only do 2 (instead of 4) dives the first day since you aren't yet certified. Plus, I wish they explained scuba jail better - we know not to go below 18m but not what happens if we accidentally do. Still, fantastic trip and great value. I got unlucky with not the best buddy, so I would recommend going with a trustworthy friend rather than solo.

Pro dive is the best company for an amazing scuba experience!
The staff was amazing! They were readily available to answer questions and provide helpful tips. They were willing to guide dives when needed and gave valuable advice to see the best things on our dives! We saw so many cool animals and plants and had an amazing time.
