We just finished our 3 day PADI Junior Open Water Course with Blue Dive. I initially organised this with Mark and Blue Dive a few months back. Mark was fantastic in setting up the course for us, so that my son could finish the online requirements on time. Whenever a question arose, Mark was very helpful in helping us navigate the issue. Roman was my son's instructor at the course. My son is aged 11 years (legal age to become a Junior OW diver is 10), and he was nervous. Roman is an extremely patient instructor and has the superb ability to breakdown each task into a series of simple steps. Under Roman's expert instructions, my son had no problems completing the course. I look forward to coming back again in a couple of years and hopefully have Roman instruct my younger child. Thank you again Mark, Roman and Blue Dive!…

Blue Dive gave us the perfect days diving. Two of us certified with two guides, one up front, one at the rear, Jess & Ellie were awesome. Once the all necessary safety briefing was complete it was play time. We were on board Silversonic, an awesomely fast large boat, but it did not have that big dive boat feel. There was so much space & we had our own table. The food was also genuinely really very good. The weather certainly helped, but the dives themselves were amazing & expertly guided, spotting sharks & Nudibranchs. Jess is also a killer underwater photographer, too, so there were many truly incredible shots that we were able to share. All in all, it was absolutely, most definitely a perfect days diving & we could not have had better hosts. Will certainly be returning to Blue Dive many times.…

Together with my four teenage kids, I had the pleasure of learning to dive with Blue Dive on the Great Barrier Reef. We couldn’t have been happier with the quality of the teaching or organisation. Alex and Jess were both fabulous, and Mark’s insights about the English Premier League were most informative. Thanks Blue Dive, we’d highly recommend you.…

Blue Dive PD comes highly rated on trip advisor and google so we decided to book our first ever scuba dive with them. We opted for a personal instructor to help us with our first dive. Booking process was quick and easy. Meeting Roman on the day he explained to us what we were to expect during the day. Roman is very friendly and easy to get along with. A great teacher and patient with us nervous on our first dive! We had an amazing time even with the choppy seas and would thoroughly recommend to anyone else to give scuba diving a try with Blue Dive PD! We saw lots of fish, a reef shark and beautiful coral. Being under the water is really calming and totally different from snorkelling on top of the choppy sea. Thank you for a perfect day!…

Highly recommend doing the tour with a private instructor for the first time. Our experienced and friendly instructor, Roman walked us through the whole dive and made us feel comfortable and safe even during poor weather conditions. Thank you so much Roman for taking the extra time with us and teaching us all about the sea life. We saw some beautiful creatures which was priceless!! We will definitely be diving again :)…
