Such a friendly and professional crew- lovely small group with guide and fabulous brand new gear. (I got to use a wing!) Had a fun morning out on some pretty spots around Hook Island. They are so helpful and cater for all levels, and I was able to have long dives, both an hour or more. Allowing people to surface when they were low on air but others to keep going is a bonus. Highly recommend!!!

Friendly, funny and know what they are doing. Raised it to another leve...

Went on a dive trip with that company on the 7th october. If you're an experienced diver maybe have a look at other agencies or clearly ask what's the certification of the other divers in your group. We've been diving as groups of 4 with 1 instructor. 1 of the divers was doing his FIRST dive for his Open Water 20. Not sure if that's fair if I spend 400 AUD for a certified dive to dive with someone...
Book between May and October for calmer seas and fewer jellyfish; use stinger suits from November to May.
