Snorkeling was AMAZING! Saw a bunch of turtles and reef sharks. The crew were very friendly, helpful, and fun. The included lunch was great(chicken, sandwich meat, soup,bread,pasta,and Salad). Overall, such a great experience.
Great hard working and helpful crew. The boat is brand new. The lunch meal provided was large and delicious.
Great and professional service for divers and snorkelers.
Modern and good boats, both for reef cruise as well as live aboard. Would happily book again, can only recommend.
The boat was brand new and the crew was very helpful. I did the intro to scuba day trip and the team couldn't have been more patient and helpful. Lunch was plentiful and delicious. There was plenty of crew on the team and they were thorough in their safety procedures. It was a wonderful day!
3 day dive trip was awesome. Day 1 was on a boat shared with day trippers and over crowded but by the evening we were dropped off at the outer reef boat and space space space baby! Loved it from here on in!
We just returned from a 3 night / 4 day stay on Ocean Quest. This is our second trip with the company (last year we did the amazing Minke Whale trip). We had a really great time again this time. The boat is comfortable and has good facilities. Everything is kept clean and the queen size bed we slept on is comfortable.
The diving is so beautiful and most of the coral is in really great condition and undamaged. Safety is taken seriously on this vessel and it is greatly appreciated. The dive staff were all very helpful, friendly and professional - well done staff, it does not go unnoticed!
The other non-dive staff were very hard-working and friendly and kept the boat and facilities in a very clean condition.
The meals very very good - in fact we think that the food has improved since a year ago. We had plenty of food and the quality was very good - fresh salads, pasta, lamb, chicken etc. Also, there was a vegan diver on board and he was impressed that the chef catered for his requirements so well. Great job chefs!
This company is doing a really good job catering for divers, non-divers and snorkellers and showing us beautiful parts of the Great Barrier Reef.
Thank you Deep Sea Divers Den - you are all doing a wonderful job. Keep up the great work.
I have stayed on Deep Sea Divers Den's Liveaboard twice, and both times have been fantastic. Very nice staff and a relax atmosphere. There is free coffee and tea on the sundeck, and all meals are included,. You only need a few spare change to buy a beer before bed.
My wife and I booked a 3 day live aboard tour with Deep Sea Divers Den. We have both previously completed our dive certs but had not dove in a long time. Initially after boarding the Reef Quest boat we were a bit concerned, things were a bit chaotic as most people on board were just doing a half day tour. After our first dive we transferred to Ocean Quest, and wow what a difference. The staff on both boats were good but the clients on the Reef quest boat vs the Ocean Quest boats were quite different.
We had a wonderful time and were well taken care of on Ocean Quest. We got lots of diving in and saw lots of ocean life. The food was wholesome, and the crew took good care of everyone on board. Accommodations were spacious on board the live aboard boat (double suite).
Would love to go again, thanks Deep Sea Divers Den.
Very good experience. We did a one night two day trip. We were dropped off at the boat , waited about half an hour to get on the boat. On the boat we were served small scones , coffee and tea. We got to the reef about 2 hours later and immediately did our first dive. Got transferred to another boat on which we slept and did another two dives. Lovely room , cleaned and air-conditioned. Boat is there mostly for people who want to dive - there isn't a lot of time to lie for hours and tan/read a book. If you want to dive a lot choose this service. Enjoyed every moment. Lovely staff.
Definite 5 stars! Highly recommended. Very friendly, fun and professional staff. Smile Guaranteed! The best way to experience The Great Barrier Reef!
Really nice people. Professional, smart and fun. Nice boats and also, they do a volunteer scheme for a cheap dive/snorkel on the reef! Check them out
I had a good experience when snorkeling for 3 days with them. In the big boat (for the night stay) we had very good and tasty meals. The guides were very attentive. Sometimes I was the only guy snorkeling there.
The only downside is the cruise at the first day. It was overcrowded. I felt sick and I didn't even had a place to recover in the shadow.
I also didn't like the prices for wine/beer/soda, very expensive.
Just got back on on the Reef Quest day trip and it was AMAZING. The staff were fantastic kept it fun and chill. It was a really adventurous and relaxing day and I would for sure go with these guys again but only for longer! The safety video was amazing! and I wish you guys would post it on youtube or something it was very well done.
The food was good! Just wish we had a little more time as we were under the impression that we would be visiting 3 different reefs with a snorkeling at each one.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
