The only way to get in the ocean at GBR is to go out to the reef. The salt water crocs prevent people from going on the beach or in the water.

I have always heard that the GBR is an awesome experience. Don’t know if I could handle the boat ride. Thanks for sharing.

I do highly recommend Tusa Divers. If you go with them, tell them how you heard about them please. Have a great time!

It’s Tusa Dive shop that runs that trip on their boat. They are a great operation! It’s important to have good staff and equipment for diving.

I mean When I travel to Australia I will try it. It is good to know the best way to do so. It seems that a liveaboard is a great option. I like to get a 3 or 4-day trips and also be able to visit the Lizard island.

Amazing creatures! A totally different world down there! I am nowhere near being an expert at diving, may be something for beginners should suit well. Food indeed is great!
