An amazing experience! Another tick off my bucket list!

One of the most amazing experiences of my life, loved it! BUT was so far out of my comfort zone I don't know how I completed the Open Water Diver Accreditation (not real keen on 'certification'! But, again, the Pro Dive team were so professional, supportive & knowledgable that I felt safe & secure even though I was feeling like 'I can't do this!' The only issue I have is I thnk Pro Dive do get their 'pound of flesh' from the young employees they have - they are enthusiastic young people who are often international travellers wanting to do what they love & are ? maybe taken advantage of because of their situation - I hope that doesn't happen so much in Oz anymore. Also the Aussies who are the backbone of the company may need to be appreciated more as you (Pro Dive) have some amazing employees! Particularly Sean (? Sp) who is a legend & held my hand on my first night dive.

Learn to dive course

I learnt to scuba dive over 5 days and I had so much fun. My instructors were Flo and Molly and they made the whole learning experience enjoyable and took away the stress of learning. Flo was a great teacher because she was patient and explained everything very clearly and those are great qualities to have from an instructor when you can't speak underwater. She put lots of effort into teaching us so that we could explore the reef with our remaining air and she would always show us the hand signs for all the fish we saw.Being on the liveaboard for 3 days was worthwhile because I made some great friends on board and was especially close with the others learning to dive with me. They catered for my friends vegan diet and the crew were friendly and fun to have around.The only disappointing part was during the course when the guy from the store came to convince us to buy all the equipment for diving. They will allow you to try on the good quality mask and fins in the pool but expect you to buy it yourself before you go on the ship. I was expecting to have access to the decent equipment as part of the deal but instead they provide you with the lower quality mask and flippers which they advised us were much inferior.
