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.


Please Note: some medical conditions may prevent you diving and you will be required to complete a waiver and medical statement prior to the trip. If you have recently/continue to suffer from an illness or condition that may affect your dive fitness,  or are currently taking any prescription medication, you will need to consult a doctor for a 'fit to dive' medical certificate.

10 out of 10!

Had the absolute best time with Prodive Cairns! Both of our instructors Flo and Delana were great - so good at what they do and so fun to be around. The entire experience from training in the pool & classroom to being out on the reef was more than I ever could have hoped. Cant stress enough what a great service Prodive provides, the entire crew go above & beyond. Will definitely be back to continue my education & recommend as many people as I can to give it a go 😊 you definitely will not regret it!

Greate Diving Experience

With Pro Dive we did the open water PADI course in a small group led by Flo. She got us through all the pool exercises providing her support and teaching. She was so calm, and confident in us :)) , that we all felt safe and grew in confidence throughout. Flo is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. During a 3-days boat trip there were many people on a boat, but overall it did not feel overcrowded. THe whole Pro DIve team worked every day leading pre-dive instructions, preparing equipment, cooking food, cleaning up, moving the boat between reefs, and looking after all of us! What energetic, professional people! Thank you guys and keep up the good work! I have only good memories from the experience! Special thanks to our instructor Floriane , chef Marinos for prepared tasty meals that were alwyas waiting us after dives,and skipper Leighton for keeping us comfotable in tough conditions! Happy Bubbles and Best Fishes

A fantastic place to learn to dive

We did the 5 day learn to dive course with Pro Dive and it was fantastic.All the instructors (Kevin, Leo, Courtney, and the rest of the boat crew) were really good and there was plenty of experience to help with our development if we had any difficulty with certain aspects. Even the trainee dive masters, like Dan, were great for advice. The 3 days on the boat itself was really good and provided an excellent opportunity to see the reef and to make new friends. We also did the Adventure Diver course which provided some great further experiences like a deep dive.I would thoroughly recommend Pro Dive, for both learning and recreational diving.
