After many years of searching, my husband and I were fitted with perfectly fitting masks and snorkels that work. Nothing leaks. We were both delighted with the help we received.
Exactly what we were looking for!
My wife and I wanted to dive the Great Barrier Reef in Port Douglas, however all of the other dive companies were huge tour boats with 60+ people (most of them snorkling). Ozdive were the only company offering a smaller boat, much more like we are used to diving from.
We went out for a half day and did two dives and it was fantastic. The trip was a very personal experience, tailored to the dive sites that would be best that day based on the weather and away from the big tour boats.
If you dive regularly or are new to diving this is the company to choose in Port Douglas. Don’t be put off by them having less Reviews, that’s because they have only recently expanded to Port Douglas as their company is also down on the Sunshine Coast.

Perhaps the best purpose-built dive boat on the Gold Coast being fast, comfortable, spacious and makes dive set up a breeze. Staffed by a friendly, knowledgeable and professional crew who whilst prioritising safety are flexible to the skill levels of the divers and led to a fantastic day diving given the conditions mother nature chose that day. Really good facilities for pre and post diving prep and wash up and definitely shall be exploring some of the Gold Coasts popular and lesser known sites with them.
I’m a PADI Divemaster!
A bit over 12 months ago I was fortunate to come across Corey Brown kicking off OzDive. After becoming an Open Water diver in 1977 and doing Advanced and Rescue shortly after, I had always wanted to complete my Divemaster qualification but life got in the way. I didn’t want to just ‘tick the boxes’ as so often happens these days and OzDive allowed me to progress in my own time, but always encouraged me along the way.
Corey is a master instructor literally……passionate, dedicated and uncompromising. Having observed and participated in many of the Open Water classes, as well as generally diving with the OzDive crew I can recommend Corey, Lisa and the whole team to provide a first class experience, whether you are a seasoned diver or just thinking about giving it a go.

You won't find a better Dive Company on the Gold Coast! Corey and his friendly crew from OZDIVE will knock your socks off with their extensive knowledge of the local dive sites and their dive boat is incredible to say the least – spacious, comfortable and most importantly, VERY easy to enter/exit the water from. On a recent double dive at the Scottish Prince and Palm Reef we saw huge bull rays, wobbegongs, leopard sharks, moray eels, spotted eagle rays and loads more. If you’re a local or simply visiting for a few days, scuba diving on the Gold Coast with OZDIVE is an experience you won’t forget.
I completed my Open Water certification with Corey and the Team over the weekend. I would Highly recommend Ozdive for anyone looking to get into diving. I was under a time crunch to get my Open water before an upcoming trip, and Corey went above and beyond to ensure he got me in. It was a fun and supportive experience all the way through. I’ll be back to get my advanced ticket ASAP!
Ange and I had a great experience getting our open water certification with the OzDive team. A well paced and personal learning experience that was also a whole lot of fun. The instructor to student ratio allowed for plenty of one on one instruction and hands on teaching. Great job Cory and Tyler
OzDive is the most professional & inspiring dive team I have ever had the privilege to dive with. Corey the dive master is very conscientious and specific on his training methodology which has given me a great deal of confidence in my diving to date. I will continue diving with this team for a long time to come.
