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
Sydney, Australia
An excellent diving experience! We were onboard the silverswift boat. The weather was fairly average and rainy for most of the day but the dive sites were excellent - great visibility and lots to see. Spotted white tipped sharks, a turtle, clownfish, Māori wrasse, parrot fish and loads more. We dived at Flynn’s reef and coral gardens. Great diving team and support crew, well prepared for each dive and supportive throughout. Lunch was delicious and they gave everyone assistance when unwell onboard as it was a fairly rough ride to the sites. Highly recommend pro dive as we’ve used them in the past.

This was our second trip with Prodive Cairns. We completed separate courses over a 3 day period. As usual the facilities, food and diving were great but what really elevated this trip were the crew. Floriane is an amazing asset to prodive. Flo is friendly, knowledgeable and professional and she does it effortlessly. Leo was also fantastic in his ability to observe and correct parts of my diving. The dive briefs were comprehensive and this really improved our navigation skills. Due to multiple concurrent courses there were at times some confusion as to what was happening but the staff were approachable and this was always sorted out. I wouldn't be surprised if we end up on another prodive trip in the future.
