|
This trip is aboard Poseidon III, an 85 foot Catamaran with a maximum of 60 divers and a Dive Staff of 4. It is for 1 day, and allows 3 dives.
Departure Information
Departure is from Marina Mirage, Port Douglas at 8:10 AM every day, return time 4:00 PM.
The Dive
A great one-day reef trip for true diving enthusiasts, this is one of four dive trips in the area offering divers three dives at three different sites.
 (Be aware of your own dive stamina, as some divers prefer to dive only twice on a one-day trip.)
The company's new boat is so quick (It can cruise at 24 knots.) that it visits exclusive company moorings on the Northern Agincourt Reefs. These reefs are out of range of other one-day dive boats, and offer some excellent diving and snorkeling, with equally excellent visibility.
The Boat
The Poseidon III is a great dive boat. Launched in April 2007, she's an 85-foot power reef catamaran, a style of boat designed for swift, smooth travel and maximum passenger space. The boat was custom built for Poseidon, and the design reflects the input of an experienced family operation, and make the boat a quicker, more comfortable and convenient dive boat. While licensed for 90 passengers, the company limits it's trips to 60 to allow for plenty of space for everyone.
Features like changing rooms, an extra large dive deck, fresh water showers, and an air-conditiioned main salon make this boat a great choice for assuring a great day on the reef.
