Cairns Dive Adventures

We have just returned from a stay in Cairns and wanted to give a big thanks to Clint. His great advice made our trip to the outer reef much more enjoyable. We couldn't recommend them enough! We booked with them and received a free camera rental for the day. We've some brilliant underwater photos thanks to them.Thanks again Clint !!

This was our second Liveaboard trip that we organised through Cairns Dive Adventures, first trip was on Reef Encounter - reviewed here in Nov 2016 and it was great. This trip was in Dec 17 and we went on Spirit of Freedom for the 3 night Cod Hole trip. Spirit of Freedom is a very nice boat with excellent attentive crew and a good ratio of crew to guests. Room was very comfortable. Food very plentiful and great quality. There were safety divers in the water on every dive and these Dive Instructors guided us when required. This was an excellent trip in every way. Perfect weather, interesting and safe diving. Visibility generally around 20m plus. Highly recommended.Cairns Dive Adventures were wonderful again. Easy booking process, great communication. Clint even came back to the office on Saturday afternoon at 5pm to meet me and showed me how to get the best out of the complimentary camera outfit they loaned me. That is terrific service. I highly recommend Cairns Dive Adventures to book your next adventure. Dived Dec 2017

We had a fabulous seamless and fun dive trip with Cairns Dive Adventures. We did an overnight live-aboard and the scuba diving was amazing. We also borrowed an underwater camera and with Clint's top tips, managed to capture some amazing photos too! Thank you!

I did a two day/one night lifeaboard trip and I enjoyed it very much. Clint was very helpful with my numerous questions and worries and answered to every email promptly and very friendly. He even arranged to keep the office open a little longer so I could come and pick up my underwater camera. The boat itself was very clean, the cabin cozy and the food delicious. The dive instructors were experienced and knowledgeable and the whole tour was well organized. The reef diving of course was awesome. I would definitely recommend booking your tour with Cairns Dive Adventures!

I booked Reef Encounter trip for 2 day/1 night, and it was absolutely fantastic! Great spots, lots of diving/snorkeling, friendly team, comfortable facilities and tasty food! Totally recommended!

The Reef Encounter team is exceptional! We did a 2 day/1 night liveaboard trip and had the absolute best time. We rarely leave reviews, but the dive team was so friendly, fun, and wonderful (shoutout to Lola who was an incredibly patient and fun dive instructor! T'es très cool.). All the food was delicious, rooms/facilities were clean. The underwater photographer was amazing. Not a single complaint :)Thank you for such a magical 2 days!!- Joey & Noah

Amazing. The organisation was perfect. They managed to offer 6 dives for the price of 5. Which included a night dive. I paid 585 AUD for this. The team is very professional, the food was really good and the accommodation is perfect. Very good beds, bedrooms for 2 people.You can also get an Olympus camera for free for your journey.

This trip was AMAZING!!..... All the crew were fabulous! super friendly and helpful!!!! .... and very patient!!!!!. The whole trip was really well organised, we always knew exactly what we were going to do and where we were going. Ocean quest is a really comfortable, roomy ship, great food and comfortable cabins. Plenty of room on the dive deck and great equipment. We were not disappointed by any of the dive sites!!! Absolutely beautiful!!... and of course the stars of the show.... the Minke Whales!!! Plenty of them showed up and entertained us all!!!!... would highly recommend doing this trip!!!!

If you are in Cairns and want to do a trip to the reef or rainforest, this is the place to go!Clint and his team will help you to find the best trip for you. You really can feel that Clint is a passionate diver and underwater photographer, and really wants you to have a great experience at the Great Barrier Reef!I had booked 3 different journeys and all were just amazing!First I had a wonderful trip 3 days, 2 nights on Reef Encounter and completed my SSI Open Water Diver Course. After that I booked an amazing railway-skyrail trip to the rainforest village of Kuranda. I completed my holiday with a second liveaboard Scuba Dive on Reef Encounter.On both reef trips, I got the free professional underwater camera which is just amazing. The photos are just so much better then the pictures you could take with a GoPro. Clint even gave me many helpful hints, how to get the perfect shot under water. Just look at the photos attached, they turned out amazing, even I nearly have no photography experience!I would highly recommend you to contact Clint in person or on his website and check, which trip fits you the best!I’ll surely come back here if I’m back in Cairs.Thank you so much for the amazing experience!

Very helpful and cheerful in answering our questions pre booking. Seamless booking process. But stand out quality demonstrated when our trip cancelled resulting from a covid quarantined boat. Clint was incredibly fast in responding to arrange our full refund of deposit paid to Cairns Dive Adventures. Absolute confidence in recommending as a trustworthy operator.
