Dive Spear and Sport at 1770

One of the reef's mini marvels: meet a marine flatworm.

Marine flatworms are one of the reef's tiny predators. Many are brightly coloured, as a warning to predators, and some can even steal defensive toxins from their prey to use for their own defence!

Sundays visibility report: "Come lose your mind in the crystal clear water!" Every dive on the Southern Great Barrier Reef feels like sinking into a dream... with graceful sea creatures cruising effortlessly around you.

Wednesday is shaping up to be our pick of this week for BEST WEATHER

We saw SO much... and somehow there's still so much more to explore! 🐠🐢🪸

Every trip to the Southern Great Barrier Reef is different, and this one certainly didn't disappoint. From vibrant coral gardens to incredible marine life, it was one of those days that reminds us why we love what we do.

A huge thank you to Michelle, John, Cindy, Flaminia, Emmah, Lily, Irina and Nicole for sharing the adventure with us. We loved having you aboard and hope these memories stay with you for a lifetime. 💙

Who knows what we'll find on the next trip?
