Do a dive course in Cairns

Cairns is one of the best places in Australia to learn to dive, you can join Deep Sea Divers Den for the adventure of a lifetime learning to dive on the magnificent Great Barrier Reef. Deep Sea Divers Den's friendly, personalized service, combined with the warm tropical waters of the Great Barrier Reef, are the perfect combination for one of the very best PADI 5 Day Openwater courses available. No pre-dive experience is necessary, however being a comfortable swimmer will be a definite advantage.
There are many different options on how to become a PADI certified diver. For your safety, a Diving Medical to Australian standard 4005.1 is a prerequisite to the PADI Openwater Certification course. It is a good idea to complete this medical prior to commencement of the course to avoid disappointment if a medical condition inhibits diving. Alternatively, a Dive medical can be arranged at the Deep Sea Divers Den Dive Centre on day one of the course.

The first two days of the course are taken up by pool and theory training. After the pool and theory training, you spend three days at sea on OceanQuest, a liveaboard dive boat, to complete your four training dives. Finish off the course with four pleasure dives and a guided night dive.

OceanQuest is 28 meters (30.6 yards) in length, fully air-conditioned with a cruising speed of 10 knots and carries 40 live aboard passengers. The OceanQuest is a dedicated liveaboard dive boat with the majority of passengers being scuba divers, with a few snorkelers. More info....
