Queensland, Crocks, and Cairns

Crikey!

After the school year finished I took a trip up to Queensland to experience the Australian jungle. This will be one of a three part series of posts on Queensland. The first part of this journey took place in a town called Cairns. (Pronounced without the "r")

I traveled to Cairns with my friend Carlos, who I had met in my University Housing. A citizen of El Salvador and avid diver, we agreed to see the Great Barrier Reef before we left Australia.

We experienced the reef with a company called Pro Dive. We booked a 3 Day Liveaboard tour, living above Green and Flynn Reefs from Sunday through Tuesday.

The scenery was fantastic and the night dives changed my appreciation for Scuba diving. I had already completed my basic certification and could have spent the weekend recreationally diving. I recommend taking their Advanced Open Water Course, as their Divemasters are knowledgeable and experienced.
