This is a fantastic opportunity to gain your SSI Certification in the Outer Great Barrier Reef. The open water dive course provides you with theoretical knowledge and the practical skill that you require to dive anywhere in the world. The course runs over 4 days, and includes 2 days of pool and theory, and then 2 days and 1 night on a fully air-conditioned 26 metre dive vessel.

The theory portion of your dive course consists of classroom presentations and lectures by an instructor in the comfort of an air-conditioned classroom, and confined water training in a heated 4 metre deep pool. The open water training dives will be conducted from the safety of our modern live aboard vessel the Kangaroo Explorer.

On the second half of the course you will stay on a 26 metre dive vessel. Each of the 16 cabins (twin, double or 4-berth) is fully air-conditioned, carpeted, has its own en-suite facilities and window. There are no extra costs for a twin or a double room, the rooms are booked on a first come first serve basis and allocated at the time of booking. The boat also offers an enclosed air-conditioned sun lounge as well as an open and shaded sundeck.

Included is the use of the dive equipment, dive computers and night torches, wetsuits, accommodation on the third night and all meals whilst on board the boat and transfers to and from the wharf to all Cairns city accommodation places (unless within a short walking distance). All your log books and dive tables are also included, and finally your 5-star certification on completion of your course!
