Silverswift Dive and snorkel from Cairns
Departing daily from Cairns, Silverswift is a luxury 29-metre catamaran designed with everything you need to experience an underwater world of colourful marine life in safety and comfort. This trip visits three different sites on The Outer Barrier Reef, allowing certified divers to experience up to 3 dives in a day. Introductory diving is also available onboard for those interested in trying a dive for the very first time.
Adventurous snorkellers can explore spectacular coral formations and underwater gardens awash with vibrantly coloured marine creatures.
Locations vary with the conditions, however, each site is chosen for visual impact, ecological diversity, and the challenge of discovery. Onboard, your crew will encourage you to relax and enjoy the comfort of Silverswift with its bar facilities, fresh water showers, air conditioning and a delicious lunch for hungry adventurers.
Morning and afternoon tea is provided and the spacious deck areas are ideal for sharing a cold drink and tales of your adventure.

Tripadvisor Reviews
An amazing diving experience. Thoroughly enjoyed the 3 day 2 night live aboard. If you looking to do this trip, ask to be put on a trip with Kevin who is the dive guide. He is hilarious and made the trip that much more enjoyable. Big D is also an awesome instructor for our advanced course. This was our first time diving unguided and we felt confident because of the thorough briefings. 2 of the toilets were blocked on our boat which made the entire boat smell real bad (this happened prior to us boarding the boat) so check that this is fixed before making your booking! Also the trip out to the sites in July is rough due to winds, make sure to take sea sick tablets.

I've always wanted to learn to scuba dive, but also had a few worries... Before booking, Pro Dive answered all my questions, so I decided to go for it and am so pleased I did. I did the open water PADI course in a small group taught by Flo. She made the theory understandable, took us through all the pool exercises, but most importantly her support when were in the water was outstanding. She is so calm, clear and reassuring, that we all felt safe and grew in confidence throughout. By the end of the qualification I felt confident enough to go off with my buddy on a fun dive, something I never would have thought I'd be doing a few days before! I also loved the Live-aboard, I could definitely get used to the sleep-dive-eat routine. This course opened up a whole new world for me, thank you!
