If time prevents you from participating in our popular five-day course and you would prefer to be on land each evening, this four-day course is the perfect option for you.  

Partnering with Quicksilver Dive, a 5 Star PADI diver training centre based in Port Douglas, you’ll have the unique experience of doing your classroom and pool training in Cairns and then completing your training dives at the stunning Agincourt ribbon reefs from Port Douglas.

The four-day course consists of two parts: 

• Two days of pool and classroom training at Pro Dive Cairns Training Centre.

Centrally located in Cairns city, our modern training centre features the deepest four-metre diver training pools in the region, ensuring a professional and safe learning environment.
