Departing daily from Cairns... Silverswift is ready to whisk you away for a day of fun and adventure on the Great Barrier Reef. This is an active day all about being in the water for your scuba diving or snorkel adventure of a lifetime! You'll explore spectacular coral formations and underwater gardens awash with vibrantly coloured marine creatures as you visit three different outer reef sites at Flynn, Pellowe, Milln and/or Thetford Reefs. Locations vary with the day's conditions however each site is chosen for visual impact, ecological diversity and the challenge of discovery!

Boarded the boat and it was absolute chaos with half eaten food everywhere and nowhere for us to sit . So we asked a crew member where we should sit and was told you have to find you own seats . We … Full review by Steve W

3 dives with family (2 adults, 15yo girl, 12yo boy), private guide. Trip was amazing! Weather and ocean conditions are no doubt important, and admit we were lucky on both. However, that is not all,… Full review by HoyoungA1

I booked (and paid) for an outer reef trip months in advance. With a few weeks left I was informed our trip was being canceled for "mechanical" reasons. We had to scramble a bit to get a similar trip… Full review by October141066

Q:
Hi! I will be visiting Cairns in December and would like to book a snorkel trip. My level of experience is "beginner". Would this dive and snorkel cruise be appropriate for someone at my level?
A:
You need to be fairly competent at swimming to go on this trip. Because you come off the back of the boat, you might be better to go on one that stops at a pontoon. It is a fantastic …

Hi, I can see you offer an intro to diving. But I just wanted to confirm as a non certified diver would an Instructor be with me for the dives I take? Thanks!

I used them in January 2020 with no diving experience at all and did an introductory dive. This was an instructor with a small group (I think a maximum of 4, maybe 6 per instructor). …

I used them in January 2020 with no diving experience at all and did an introductory dive. This was an instructor with a small group (I think a maximum of 4, maybe 6 per instructor). Depends on how busy the boat is when you book as to how many dive in your introductory group. An instructor will be with you, but unlikely to be on a 1-2-1 basis.

Q:
I read one review on either this site or another one regarding Silverswift that indicated you may or may not visit all three reefs and may only visit three areas of the same reef. Can you clarify whether you get to all three reefs? Or, what the basis for deciding this is. The review i read indicated it may be dependent on how many people are onboard for a specific tour. Thank you!
A:

Hi, No. It was all very adult orientated with divers who have a recognised diving certification. But not necessarily with lots of diving experience. They may be other options that I am not aware of though. One trip I did where it is worth looking in to as it may see toddlers, is a trip to Green Island. Hope you find something suitable.

On the 1th of July we dived with Silverswift. It was very nice and we bought one diving picture for 20 dollar, paid on board. I never received my picture on the email (as agreed). Hope the photographer can contact me. Thanks.Jolien
A:
You should have received a cd when you got off the boat. Contact the company directly. You will probably be able to download the picture off of the net.
