Hubby and I did this experience because its something he’d always wanted to do and for me I thought it would help ease my fear of the ocean by knowing whats under the water and around me. Instructor was great and there were so many fish it was magical. Hubby keen to learn more but for me, I’ll have to work on my breathing and anxiety more before I give it another shot. TY for a wonderful morning of trying something totally new.

Right as usual open and honest feed back from me: 1. Positive - Dive Centre team very friendly and accommodating. 2. Negative - Wanted extra money for pick up and drop from hotel, even though they literally drive past it. 3. Positive - Price $100 per person 4. Negative - advertisement of 4 hours and plenty of time to snorkel off the island was not true as no snorkel time was given. Total trip approximately 5 hours which included meeting at Dive Centre, driving 20 minutes to and from the spit, 1 to 1.5 hours at Wave Island. 5. Positive - Safety first approach 6. Negative - Small boat so asked not to take towels, tops with you causing it to be a cold journey home for the ladies (I took mine and glad I did). 7. Positive - 1 instructor for 3 divers 8. Negative - As per other reviews, very cloudy and you are not deep. 9. Positive - Good for first timers. 10. Negative- No need to take lunch as advertised. Overview: Perfect for beginners - especially at the price, but don’t expect to see much or clear waters. Would recommend for anyone who wants to see if they can do it before going out to the barrier reef etc, but if you have dived before you will definitely be disappointed. Could not fault the Dive centre team however, they were professional with a great sense of humour. The feedback from Maria at the centre will be about the water and hearing the skipper say you cannot take bags, but you can take towels….As I mentioned I took mine, but their was 8 other people on the trip that didn’t because of what was instructed to them and everyone mentioned this on the return trip. I am only guessing but if you get the bookme.com discount it seems you get the smaller craft and not the one in the photos. Again for first timers it’s ok just to try the equipment etc, but if you can afford to go to Cook Or Moreton Island you will definitely have a better experience in my opinion.

I cannot fault the instructors as they were lovely but it was not as advertised - not 4 hours in day break island, wetsuits very thin, even the instructors wore double suits! Took forever to suit up 9 divers on cramped boat so first few in were just left bobbing around getting cold-for 20 minutes. My tank vest was too large because there weren’t enough small sizes on boat. I had to get out of water early as was freezing cold and teeth chattering non stop - we were told not to bring anything with us due to boat being so small so no towels, jumpers or anything available to warm up whilst waiting for other divers to finish. Freezing cold ride for all back to boat ramp. I saw one fish amongst the dull sandy clouded water - a terrible experience overall.

Vi hadde en fantastisk dag hvor vi dykket med flinke guider. Guidene var vennlige fra start til slutt, og de fremsto som tålmodige og profesjonelle. Vi fikk, som lovet, sett mange forskjellige fisker, og noen fikk vi matet fra hendene våre. Det eneste minuset var at vi betalte $40 for at de skulle ta bilder under vann av oss, men det var veldig få bilder, og bare noen av de ble gode. Men alt i alt en vellykket opplevelse.

I was really disappointed by the dive conducted by the centre. It was more of a dip than a ‘discover scuba dive’. I expected a dive into the reef with a dedicated instructor like I have had in my dives at Havelock island in India. This was more of a ‘test the waters’ or ‘test the scuba equipment’ sort of dive. I really think the management should think twice before charging so much for nothing.
