Celodenný výlet so šnorchlovaním alebo potápaním k Veľkej koralovej bariére z Cairns

Prvá výzva potápania (SCUBA diving) je skutočne trochu náročná. Najprv je potrebné overiť nasledujúce bezpečnostné aspekty: 1. Okrem antikoncepcie a liekov proti morskej chorobe, užívate aj iné lieky? (Niektoré chronické lieky môžu vyžadovať lekársky súhlas na potápanie) 2. Po jednom ponore je potrebné počkať 18 hodín pred letom lietadlom. Popis poskytovaných služieb: 1. Cesta nezahŕňa transfer, na prístav sa musíte dopraviť sami. 2. Odporúča sa užiť lieky proti morskej chorobe. Ak ich nemáte, môžete si ich kúpiť na lodi. 3. Na lodi sú k dispozícii jednoduché raňajky a obed. 4. Je možné si prenajať neoprén. 5. Poskytujeme osobné plutvy, potápačské masky a skrinky. K dispozícii sú aj spoločné záchranné vesty (na šnorchlovanie). Po nástupe na loď a pred vyplávaním vyplníte bezpečnostné informácie a dotazník o zdravotnom stave. Následne vám personál predstaví používanie potápačského vybavenia. Po zakotvení lode je možné šnorchlovať a voľne sa potápať za loďou, zatiaľ čo potápanie s prístrojom prebieha v skupinách. Táto cesta zahŕňa dve potápačské lokality. Potápanie s prístrojom sa najprv precvičuje pri boku lode, potom vás inštruktor vezme za ruku a potopíte sa do hĺbky približne 10 metrov. Pri prvom ponore vám však nebude dovolené vziať si so sebou fotografické vybavenie, fotografie pre vás urobí potápačský fotograf. Personál je veľmi ochotný a Veľká koralová bariéra stojí za to zažiť.

was truly an amazing day, a dream I’ve had for a very long time and the amazing team were able to make that come true! special thank you to Dom and Mike who were our diving instructor and main guide, really appreciate you both! the weather wasn’t great but the team kept the whole atmosphere high! the food wasn’t anything amazing, really tough steak, but nothing to really complain about! thank you again team! lots of love, #81 & #82

The experience was great except for the bumpy ride to the reef. My sons didn’t get to dive due to their asthma but I want to acknowledge the crew who explained everything very well to them that it lessen their diappointment. Now they are looking forward to following the advise, so they can get back to the reef someday and dive. Thank you🤩

very professional team that make you feel safe all the time. Everything is very well organized, own locker, sitting place, and clear instructions throughout. Snoker in 2 different reef site, spotted 2 turtles, soft colourful corals and hard corals.

It was great, highly recommended. the staff were really helpful and supportive, my wife’s been always scared of swimming and they got one trained person to be with her the whole time snorkeling. I dived twice be aware there’s only one dive including in the package. The Great Barrier Reef is one of the most amazing things I’ve seen in my life.

We had a fantastic experience with the Down Under company! They were really well organized and it was obvious that each guests safety was their number one priority. they stuck well with the schedule, provided good quality gear, and a delicious lunch! The morning and afternoon snacks were a nice touch especially with them being unlimited. There was plenty for all.

one of the best experiences I've ever done in my life. the check in was super simple. they really take care of you. we did snorkling all day but you could up for an introduction scuba dive with no experience needed. but do make sure you do this 24h before your flight. safety was there number one priority and you get complimentary coffee and tea while you waited to get taken out to the reef. and lunch was also included which you will definitely appreciate after a couple of hours of snorkling. you can also opt for a helicopter tour at the second location and they also have a marine biologist that will do a private tour to teach you all about the reef. But honestly the spots they took us out to has so much marine life and you will not be dussapointed. I sure wasn't and I'm so happy I booked with these guys so I could tick off my bucket list. super super recommend and I will definitely book again with these guys.

We had a great time on our full day reef cruise. The entire crew was incredible. Absolutely all crew but especially the snorkel team/ guides. They were pulling people around the reef and keeping everyone safe. I cannot thank them enough for how amazing they made this experience for us. The weather wasn’t great, keep in mind it’s a rough trip out there on a windy day. We took sea sickness medication before the trip and had no worries. They sell it on board (definitely get it when they recommend it). They also offer prescription snorkel masks free of charge, the minimum prescription is 2.5. If you’re looking for an intimate/ smaller group, this tour isn’t for you. There’s lots of people at all different levels of swimming/ snorkelling. It’s managed well, though if you need a snorkel guide, be prepared to wait (they are worth it though). (Credit to the photographer for the beautiful underwater photos)

The entire experience, including both snorkeling and introductory dive was excellent. The crews on board were all very professional and friendly. Great weather, comfortable boat, and even better, beautiful corals at two reef locations of the Great Barrier Reef. Really enjoyed it and highly recommended it. Definitely hope to do it again next time!

the best reef tour. the boat so big, the staff are very professional, helpful and knowledgeable of their job. the activities are great. the food is delicious. highly recommended
