Special Package: Three 1-day Great Barrier Reef Dive Trips Tusa Dive Connection |
|
This trip is aboard Tusa 5, an 84 foot Catamaran with a maximum of 60 divers and a Dive Staff of 10. It is for 3 days (note: return to town overnight), and allows 9 dives.
Departure Information
Departure is from E Finger, Marlin Marina, Cairns at 8:00 AM every day, return time 4:30 PM.
The Dive
An excellent choice for those interested diving for several days, while staying onshore at night. With this package, you will go on three one-day reef trips, at a discounted price.
Since Tusa Connection uses 21 different sites, and visits different sites daily, there is little chance that you will dive the same site twice. Reef time each day is five hours allowing for divers to dive twice, and for everyone to snorkel as much as they wish.
A long list of elated clients has shown us that Tusa Dive has the highest service level of any one day dive trip in the area. The number and quality of their staff and no doubt largely responsible for the good feedback we get.
The Boat
Tusa V was launched in September of 2007, and has been custom designed by Tusa Dive to be a premier dive vessel, and provide a fast comfortable trip to and from the reef.
Bristling with all the latest technology, the boat has flat screen monitors, lounge style seating, large sun and dive decks, as well as water level entry platroms for easy access to the reef. An on board photo pro and digital camera rental service allows for you to take home a CD of images of the reef that you have taken.
While the boat is licensed to carry 120 passengers, Tusa sets the limit at 60 passeengers to ensure a lots of space for everyone. Their ratio of staff to passengers is 1:6, ensuring that there is always guidance, help and advice available.
