We seen more colourful coral and fish than on more expensive reef dive trips.

Great team- had such a laugh & fun meeting new people from different walks of life. A Fabulous first diving experience. For those of you keen as mustard for diving you should join the RAD weekend where you'll meet the reef, make new friends & feel like you don't want to go home! Thank you.

Just a quick note to thank the team (Mustard, Fruitcup, Nat and Adam) for a fantastic weekend.  My wife and I were made to feel very comfortable throughout our entire Open Water Course and then to have it topped off with an incredible dive weekend was fantastic.  We look forward to our Advanced Course, we will definitely be back on regular basis.
