12 dives in the incredible Great Barrier Reef off Queensland’s East Coast in Australia. I would recommend learning to scuba dive and exploring the underwater world to absolutely everyone!

HOW TO DO IT YOURSELF: (none of this is sponsored!)
I booked the tour at the Gilligans travel desk in Cairns. The company is Deep Sea Divers Den
Ellen and I did the 3 day, 2 night tour which cost around $600AUD at the time for 12 dives including 2 night dives, dive equipment, accommodation, transfer and all meals.

Gaaah I'm itching to go off to Thailand or a similar country and try diving and maybe get a PADI certification. The bucket list just keeps getting longer… xD

This is the best scubadiving you already made!
Your underwater footage is such good clarity! I tried to use a red filter on my go pro when I went scuba diving and it just made all my footage red, what make is the one you have if you don't mind me asking?! X
When you're on an excursion, are you still paying for your hostel?? and is that where you keep your big backpack? Xx
Some absolutely amazing footage, especially at 7:29 looked absolutely phenomenal the whole trip
This video got me so excited! I'm going to Australia in 3 weeks and I'm really looking forward to see the marine life.
What a great way to spend your 22nd birthday!! I played the same song all day when I turned 22 last year, I mean what else is that perfect to play haha
Do a video about how you got your PADI

Sweet I'm doing this in like 1 month(3 day excursion?) Leave for Australia in 5 days. Cannot wait! Was the night time diving scary?!
