Ex-HMAS Brisbane – Double Dive Reviews

“Wonderful experience diving with sunreef (with my unidive group) at the Ex-HMAS Brisbane this weekend. Big thanks to everyone who helped, wonderful skipper (I believe Annette), and especially to my guide Mark – an eye for octopus and a calm, friendly, supporting guide who made it an easy, stress-free, fun dive. Always grateful for guides who accommodate new divers with patience and encouragement. Friendly and welcoming from the front desk to the ocean floor!”

“We had a wonderful morning diving on HMAS Brisbane. The dive master Abbie and boat driver Ben were so knowledgeable. They were courteous, friendly and at all times had our safety as their priority. It was a truly memorable experience, made even better by these terrific staff. An added bonus was that we got to see a whale breaching with her calf.”
