Dive Review of
Explorer Ventures in
Australia/GBR/Coral Sea

Mostly Caribbean

Dive Conditions

Asked not to exceed 130ft.When returning to boat remaing air, maximum depth
and time were recorded for each dive. No decompression diving allowed. Solo
diving available if certified. If no dive buddy available they would team
you up or go with instructor otherwise you could dive your own profile.  

Small table for cameras on dive deck.Camera only rinse tank.  

Overall Rating

After diving Caribbean only, GBR was magnificent. Bommies make easy diving
starting at 100 ft or so and then circling the mount to the surface. You
see all aspects of the reefs.Would recommend you book one of the 2 suites
on the Nimrod. One has 2 twins the other a queen with ensuite bathrooms.
All other cabins below deck with quad share.
Ride is exremely smooth. Boat is a catamaran. Only rough ride was crossing
over to the Coral Sea. Motion was up and down no swaying. Needed seat belts
in the bunk to keep from being tossed out. Rainy and windy on the crossing
otherwise all other steaming were quit smooth.
No real place to lay out in the sun. Only open area was on the bow with
some indoor/outdoor carpet. Sun is extremely intense even for someone from
Florida.
Can't stress enough how beautiful and vibrant the corals, hard & soft,
were. Napolean wrasse were hugh and the unicorn fish unusual.
The service was great but avoid the vegimite unless you like axel grease.
Hoping to go back again but might try another liveaboard slightly newer but
Explorer prices are the best.
