SCUBA diving the Great Barrier Reef (from Cairns)

Описание: SCUBA diving on the Great Barrier Reef is something I've wanted to do since I was very little and I'm feel very fortunate and thankful that things fell into place for me to be able to make it happen. I'll never forget this experience and I hope you've enjoyed the video I made highlighting my experience on the reef. Also, this was the first time I ever shot any footage underwater and I had a lot of fun doing it, hopefully I can shoot with something a little more versatile than a GoPro in the future.

Dive Site information:

Coral Gardens (Flynn Reef):
-Bottom Time: 42 minutes

Some of the wildlife that I saw on this dive included a green turtle, bumphead parrotfish, Great Barrier Reef Anemone fish, Pink Anemone fish, a few different species of batfish, clownfish, Maori Wrasse, a Titan Triggerfish, a Kuhl stingray, a few species of angelfish, and also a messmorizing giant blue clam. I went on these dives in September of 2016.

The Quicksilver Group was the operator that took me out to the reef. I rode on the "SilverSwift" vessel and I had a really good experience with them. They can be found here:
