Hi divers,

We plan to go for a double dive at Flinders Reef: 'Flinders-Reef is a small isolated reef north-west of Moreton Island. It has the highest number of coral species of any sub tropical reef system along Australia's east coast. With thousands of species of tropical fish, an array of hard and soft corals, eagle rays, leopard sharks in summer, grey nurse sharks and humpback whales in winter, and the famous Turtle Cleaning Station in only 5m of water it is one of Queensland's most popular open water level dive sites.'

  • Be a current Unidive member, medically fit to dive, who passed the swimming test.
  • Have an Open water certification or equivalent.
  • Have dived in the last 6 months.
  • Dive within their certification and capability.
  • Ensure that they have all required dive gear (except tanks and weights, which are provided):
