2 Day POOL & Theory Referral Program

The PADI referral system gives you a variety of options to commence and complete your diving education. It is possible to start your PADI Open Water (Learn to Dive) certification with the two-day Pool and Theory Referral Program at the Pro Dive Cairns training centre or finish your Open Water certification with our PADI Three Day Ocean Referral Course.

You will spend two-days at our modern, purpose-built diver training centre learning the theory and underwater skills of diving. PADI referral paperwork will be issued at the end of day two, confirming the completion of your pool and theory training. The instructor who completes the remainder of the PADI Open Water training will require this referral paperwork.

You are strongly advised to pre-book your course as availability may be limited. You can pre-book and confirm your place on a course by booking online, emailing or calling us.

Daily accommodation transfers are included and can be booked in advance. However, if you are unsure of your accommodation details, you can contact us on arrival in Cairns.

10/10 Must do!

The Trip was absolutely amazing. Thanks to my instructor Christine, I had no issues being under water and were able to focus on the beauty of the Great Barrier Reef.

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.

Great operation, good value!

We had a great diving trip with Pro Dive Cairns. We did not book directly with them so pre trip arrangement was not too smooth, but actual trip itself was very good. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. Food prepared by hard working chef were all great. All the dives are efficiently run and well explained. Still great corals and many fish.
