    Thank you so much for this - really useful for getting ideas together. We're coming up from NSW in May and it's our first time up on the GBR and really were struggling to get our head around how it all works up there!

    hi thanks very much for such a informative video. Actully I am planing to come to cairns to see GBR during end Oct- Biginning NOV. Is this good season with calm sea conditions with good Visibility for a diver with 60 dives. Hopefully there are solo diviers like me to buddy up during dives.
    Also pl let me know how to choose between pro- dive and Ocean Quest which one better with respect safety and comfort. Since most dives are unguided diver safety is most important.
    Also is it safe to dive without any guide in barrier reef unlike in other places there is always some one will be there to guide a group of 5 to 6 divers.

      Hello yes that is fantastic you are planning to come and dive OCT / NOV in fact in our opinion those are the two best months of the entire year to come and dive in Cairns. Generally very low wind, beautiful warm water and no rain with blue skies and sunshine. Yes you will be able to buddy up with another certified diver on the boat, and if you are looking for comfort in your boat and the chance to get a dive guide then you should look at the Ocean Quest - they have TWIN share cabins with private bathrooms and the boat is a large TWIN hull vessel so nice and stable in the water.

    I noticed on the PADI website that there is likely sightings of great whites in the Great Barrier Reef, how likely is it to see one in the Norman, Saxon, Hastings region?

    How much is the chance to see minke whale in late of June? Which program is recommended for this purpose?

    • @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia
      @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi thanks for getting in touch, yes please note late JUNE and JULY are the perfect time to try to interact with Minke Whales in Cairns. At the moment there are still spaces available for the Friday - 05th JULY 2024 please see here - cairnsdiveadventures.com.au/tour/cairns-minke-whale-dive-trips/

    Are there particularly areas or diving/snorkeling sites easier to spot Maori Wrasse and Potato Cod? Thanks ahead.

    • @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia
      @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Hannah, yes in general the most famous place for giant cod is the cod hole on the ribbon reefs see here - cairnsdiveadventures.com.au/tour/mike-ball-dive-expeditions-fly-dive-cod-hole/ but you can often see reasonably large Malabar cod diving on day trips from Port Douglas see here - instagram.com/p/BzQH8zdpd4f/ that photo was taken on the day boat Silversonic here - cairnsdiveadventures.com.au/tour/silversonic/

    I didn’t realise and am surprised many of them don’t do guided dives.

    • @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia
      @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Hannah yes most of them do not offer guides but there are two boats that you can buy guided dives while out on the boat, they usually charge $15 per dive per person check them out here - cairnsdiveadventures.com.au/tour/reef-encounter/ and also here - cairnsdiveadventures.com.au/tour/deep-sea-divers-den-liveaboard/

      Thank you Sukkyoung, yes if have dived by yourself and have navigated underwater back to the boat by yourself, Flynn reef is perfect!

    Which months are kind of best season? Dry season? It said a lot of jelly fish in wet season.

    • @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia
      @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well there is nice diving all year round but if you would like to try and time it as best you can then I always recommend October / November / December. Its true late November is the start of the jelly fish season but in general these are a mainland problem at the beaches on the coast. Generally not an issue diving 45klm to 65 klm offshore on the reef. All companies will give you a Lyra suit just in case. But the reason I like diving in the later part of the year is the wind tends to drop down to 5 /10 knots (calm seas) and it is still nice and sunny before the wetseason rains. The water is also starting to warm up at around 26 degrees Celsius. See the two article here form more in on Jellyfish - cairnsdiveadventures.com.au/reef-info/cairns-jellyfish/ and here for the best time of year to dive - cairnsdiveadventures.com.au/diving-tours-cairns/dive-seasons-in-cairns-month-by-month-guide/

    Good video mate. I'm a Cairns local and want to get my open water certification. Never dived before so I'm looking at certification centres in either Cairns or Port Douglas. A friend of mine (advanced diver) recommended Pro Dive Cairns for the open water course. Would you agree?

    • @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia
      @CairnsDiveAdventuresAustralia  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Andrew yes Pro-Dive are a fantastic operation that's who I originally learned to dive with! Beautiful dive sites and very good instructors. We have them listed on our website here if you need anymore info - cairnsdiveadventures.com.au/tour/pro-dive-open-water/
