Itinerary 


Day 1

  • 7:20am Check in at Tangalooma Wharf (220 Holt St, Pinkenba)
  • 8:00am Ferry departure
  • 9:15am Arrive at the resort and meet AMI Team at the end of the jetty
  • Once you have met the friendly dive team they will go through a quick review of your e-learning component and then get you in the pool for your confined water section. During this stage we will learn and practice all the skills you need to become a PADI Scuba Diver in safety of a confined pool with your instructors.
  • Evening dolphin feeding
Day 2
  • After the first day spent with your fellow classmates and friendly instructors, you’ll be up on diving techniques, skills, and well on the road to being Open Water Dive Certified! Day 2 is all about the diving. Today we plan to get in dives 1,2 and possibly 3 of your open water course. Don’t forget, if there’s something you don’t understand, your expert instructors are not only there to teach you everything you need to know about diving, but to also ensure the very best experience in all areas!
  • Sunset cruise
Day 3
  • By day 3, you will have participated in at least 2 ocean dives and practiced the majority of your new found aquatic education. Day 3 is all about re-capping those skills, and enhancing any that felt a little mysterious on Day 2. On day 3 we'll be finishing off your final dive or dives, depending upon how many we got through on the previous day. With some truly stunning destinations and mesmerising marine life just waiting through your mask! 
  • We'll also put some time aside incase anything needed fine tuning or finishing from the previous days. 
  • 3:30pm Check in at ferry departure zone
  • 4:00pm Return ferry departure
  • 5:15pm Arrive back at Tangalooma Wharf
