PADI 进阶开放水域潜水员课程及高氧空气潜水员课程

Before the trip, we’ve called to the ProDive and check the trip we booked. They said it is a package of OW and AOW. But after the trip, ProDive charge us for extra money and said that AOW was not included in the package. Furthermore, the ‘AOW’ is not the Advanced Open Water, is Adventure Open Water, which I never heard before. And then they said if we want to get Advanced Open Water, we have to finish another 5 dives, which is impossible for us to finish in this trip. Although the staff on boat is wonderful, but the experience is poor at the end.

A great experience! I learned a lot while having a good time and felt safe all the way through the course and dives! A large part was due to the greatest dive instructor Flo! I have only good memories from the experience!

I wish I had read some of the reviews from more experienced divers before I booked the 3 day liveaboard with prodive. Writing this review to cover the things I wish i knew before booking.The crew did their best with what they had but ultimately its just a low cost, low quality, high volume operation:- most divers on board were doing their ow certification, which I think influenced the sites we went to. We spent most of our time on flynn reef and only moved to milln reef for the last two dives. Not sure about the rest of the GBR but a lot of the sites were bleached and sad.- no guides are provided, and you're on your own to navigate to the sites and find interesting critters. Quite a few people I talked to didn't end up in the right place or see the things we were supposed to. Instead of enjoying the dives, a lot of it was trying to situate ourselves or look after the more inexperienced divers. If no guides are provided, than a minimum number of dives would be appropriate to ensure safety- no effort was made to buddy up solo divers based on experience and air consumption. It was uncomfortable seeing someone realise their buddy was highly inexperienced and try to communicate that they didn't feel safe or confident with them as a buddy as we were getting ushered into the water.- open water divers were on their own without guides/divemasters immediately after getting certified, and a lot of them looked pretty rattled. All the safety checks and head counts seem pretty pointless if they're happy to send out two extremely inexperienced divers out on their own- no idea why the staff didn't tell divers to take motion sickness tablets when we were checking in or before boarding the boat - they told us way too late when the boat was already in choppy waters, and 20+ people threw up for 2 hours straight.- this last point is being picky but the boat was at full capacity which meant uncomfortably cramped seating arrangements for meals, and being in each other's way when we were putting on our gear - this could easily be managed by staggering entry into water by groups rather than have all 32 people getting ready at the same time.
