Always take a look under ledges and overhangs! You just never know who you might find under there!

The Moltke shipwreck is our favourite spot for searching out cool critters in the many nooks and crannies created by the old wreckage!

Recently, we completed more scuba training with the We are the S E A W O M E N of the G B R. What a journey it’s been watching this incredible program continue to grow. A huge shout out to Coral Sea Foundation for creating a program that equips Indigenous women with the skills and knowledge to care for their sea country.

In this round of scuba training, the SeaWomen extended their diving skill set by taking on the Advanced and Rescue Diver courses.

Haylie had this to share about her time training the SeaWomen:

🌊𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐎𝐍!

Less than 4 weeks until we roll into Sydney for this year’s Go Diving Show… and yep, we’re pretty bloody pumped. 🤙

It’s the biggest event on Haylie & Chad’s annual calendar, and this year we’re joining forces with a bunch of other small, family-run dive operators from across QLD under the banner of .

Together, we’re all about showing people that there’s more to Queensland diving than the usual bucket-list stops.

Think wild coastlines, local secrets, accessible reef and epic underwater adventures, the kind of places that make you want to stay a little longer and explore a little further. 🐠🌴

So if you’re in Sydney 5–6 September, come say g’day, talk all things diving and discover a different side of the Great Barrier Reef and Queensland diving.

Nervous about snorkelling? 🤿

Imagine this! You turn up at the dive shop… meet your snorkel guide… sit under the shady trees and discuss the snorkel plan… try on the best quality gear including wetsuit if it’s cold, and then… you walk across the road to Magnetic Islands iconic Geoffrey Bay… you wade in, gradually getting deeper… you swim out further, perhaps with the help of your snorkel guide… you reach the shallow reef and look down to see colourful corals, reef fish of all kinds, maybe a turtle or a ray and your guide is there to explain what everything is and what it’s doing! You did it! You just snorkelled on the Great Barrier Reef in a shallow, safe environment with a guide to look after you. That’s a snorkel tour at Pleasure Divers…. contact us to book one for yourself or your family today!
