Best trip!
This was my first live aboard experience and my absolute favorite dive trip so far! The boat was very clean and in very good condition. The crew were very friendly and helpful and really went out of their way to make the experience as best as it could be.

We would definitely recommend Pro Dive Cairns
The crew worked hard and were clearly on tight but well managed schedule. Anytime they weren’t preparing for teaching diving they were cleaning putting away gear and setting up for the next activity. The meals were incredible and there was a lot of food for as many people that were on that boat. They took diver safety very seriously as they should.

Great time diving with Pro Dive
I had a great time with Pro Dive! From the on board staff to the diving, it was an amazing experience. Shoutout to Will for being the best dive instructor and helping me get my Advanced Open Water Certification. Highly recommend booking this!

Best of a rocky situation!
Out of their control but the boat ride out and first few afternoon/evening dives had terribly choppy conditions. Many people were getting seasick, although they advised everyone to take tablets and had them available for sale on the boat. Otherwise, the trip was great! Fairly tight and basic accomodations and standard meals (however, you never went hungry). Dives were very good once the conditions improved and the sites got better as the days went on. A detailed breifing was given before each dive, but sometimes there were not enough guides to take divers + students out which was not a big deal for me. Just be aware you may have to make some unguided dives. Crew was kind, friendly, and helpful. Great for a budget traveller who wants to get a few dives in on the reef!

I had an incredible trip with ProDive Cairns!
Isabelle was an amazing instructor, Ashton made the dive briefings fun and informative, Carmen kept us super well fed, and the other guides Christina and Kait were lovely as well! All the other guests were really friendly - I was traveling solo but came away with some new friends!

Great Experience, Highly recommend
The diving was amazing. The food was excellent. The only challenge is that they are turning the boat so quickly that there are a few things that need to be addressed. The three days were very busy and physically challenging. Eleven dives in three days. Seeing Sharks, Turtles, Rays and amazing coral formations. It was like an alien planet.

Good value for the price
The trip visited some beautiful reefs with amazing hard corals. Marine life was overall good, not great, with the best dives being the night dives with lots of fish and shark activity. Boat felt crowded and dive deck was chaotic with 30 divers gearing up and lining up at once but was overall a pleasant experience. Dive briefings were very well done.
