Quicksilver Cruises

For the experience of a lifetime, Quicksilver's high speed wavepiercing catamaran takes guests in air-conditioned comfort to the renowned Agincourt Reef, a jewel-like ribbon reef.

With the most spacious activity platform on the Great Barrier Reef and a high crew ratio, guests of all ages, swimmers and non-swimmers alike, can experience this stunning reef world in comfort. Friendly and attentive crew, including marine biologists, are on hand to ensure guests enjoy and gain the most from their day.

Explore the reef in a semi-submersible, underwater observatory, or by snorkelling and diving in the beautiful coral gardens. Your day also includes a delicious tropical buffet lunch, morning and afternoon teas.

Exciting optional activities include introductory and certified scuba diving, guided snorkelling tours, Oceanwalker helmet diving and scenic helicopter flights.

There is no better place in the world to learn to dive than the Great Barrier Reef! Quicksilver Dive's 4 Day PADI Learn To Dive course combines two days theory and pool practise with the excitement of two-day trips to become a certified diver.

The open water training and certification dives are conducted from Quicksilver’s dive vessels Poseidon or Silversonic, or from Quicksilver's Outer Reef platform, with exclusive permits to a spectacular array of over 35 World Heritage Great Barrier Reef dive sites at the renowned Agincourt ribbon reefs.

Quicksilver Dive operates Port Douglas' only purpose-built, PADI 5 Star dive training facility. With a heated pool, experienced instructors and small classes sizes, your dive certification will be safe, professional and most importantly, fun! eLearning courses are also available.

Quicksilver Dive is proud to be recognised as a PADI Adaptive Service Facility, the first in Queensland and the only facility of its kind on the Great Barrier Reef with this accreditation. This means Quicksilver Dive offers the chance for those with different abilities, special needs and varying levels of mobility to experience the magic of scuba and the Reef's amazing underwater world. As with all diving, age and medical conditions apply.
