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.

I had an awesome time on my 3-day 2-night livaboard with ProDive. I am an advanced open water diver but had never done an unguided dive before this trip and was a little nervous. There was absolutely no need to be nervous, the crew and instructors on board were very thorough, gave detailed briefings and navigational directions, checked all equipment, were very focused on safety (always logging dive times and depths and with a dedicated lookout on board), answered all questions, and even offered a guide on the night dives. I met a lovely group of divers on board and got on very well with the entire crew. The dive sites were beautiful, food on board was delicious, and overall this was a fantastic experience. I will definitely be back for another trip!

Incredible trip! I had an amazing experience on the 5 day certification liveaboard with Pro Dive. My instructor Flo was so patient and made me feel calm and confident in the water from day one. She explained everything clearly and is a brilliantly instructor! The crew on board were so on it and supportive, there was a great atmosphere on the boat the whole time. The food was delicious too, we were all very well looked after! Iād highly recommend Pro Dive to anyone looking to get certified.
