Great fun for first-time diver

My husband and I dove with Sam in April 2018, and it was magnificent. We met with our guide prior to joining the rest of the boat, so coordination was easy enough. I was a nervous first-time diver, but Sam was so fantastic - by...More

Must do reef dive!

We’d researched this company on tripadvisor and it was rated number one and we can see why! The whole day was well planned, organised and the crew were really helpful and knowledgeable. There were 3 separate dive sites where you can scuba dive or snorkel....More

The stargazing/sunset cruise provided by Blue Dive in conjunction with Choo Choo's Explorer boat is a special experience. After a safety briefing by the boat crew and a short ride on the ocean for the sunset, Sam gave us a commentary using his laser pointer...More

Had a great day

I had Seb as a private guide and my wife went with the snorkeling group. It was a great day on the reef. It's more optimized for divers, but the snorkeling experience was very good, too. The crew chose the dive locations to suit the...More

We are travelling in on a flight from Canada arriving on September 20 th in Sydney and on the 21 of September early morning (still to be booked from Sydney) we are wanting to snorkle the reef and tour the Daintree heading back sometime on the 23 with only 2 days in the area what would be the best plan of attack. The visit will be short but with some careful planning enjoyable. Please give me your recommendations thank you
