| Snorkelling Picture yourself snorkelling over magical reef gardens where the coral is pristine and the water is stunningly clear!! Tusa Dive have a selection of 16 unique dive and snorkel locations for you to explore. While the divers explore the walls and depths, you’ll be gliding over the reef tops, mesmerised by the vivid colours of the fish as they dart in and out of the corals and anemones. You’ll be provided with top ‘diver’ quality masks and snorkels, booties and fins. Wetsuits, and/or lycra suits are provide for all, depending on the season, and for those who like a little extra buoyancy in the water, our ‘noodles’ will help to keep you safely above the coral. The snorkelling is straight off the back of the T5, with the reef never more than a short swim away. The crew will give you a thorough brief before you enter the water, and a little instruction about snorkelling for first-timers. A dedicated crew member will be in the water for any that like a little extra assistance, and a Free Guided Snorkel tour with one of our professional divemasters will be offered in the day. Introductory Diving Make your reef trip the ultimate experience, and take an 'Intro dive'. An 'Intro Dive' or Introductory Dive, is by it's true name, a PADI Discover Scuba Course. You do not need to have any experience to participate in the Discover Scuba Course, and all tuition is undertaken on board the T5. You do however need to be at least 14 years old, and be able to pass a medical questionnaire when you board the boat in the morning. After your briefing and once at the reef, you will be diving right off the back of the boat, at the same sites as the certified divers to maximum of 10 metres depth. You will have the most experienced instructors by your side, and a maximum of three other 'intro' divers. You can expect your dive to last between 20 and 35 minutes, and give you a whole new perspective of the world of fish! You have the opportunity of a second dive at the day's second reef location, as well as a couple of hours between your dives for snorkelling.
