Wave Break Island Scuba Diving on the Gold Coast

First dive into water. Beacuse do not know swimming. Awsome experience wanna di it again. Thanks for great coach

Omg. First off they were to pick us up in front of our hotel. We waited. No one came. I called and supposedly they had come, they didn’t see us and left, but the manager was nice enough to send the van back. We get there and we’re signed up for a discovery dive when I had signed us up for a certified dive. Then to top it all off, we get Lolli. The most horrible scuba master/ human being ever. Was rude to me non stop. Told me I was rude, threw my weight belt on the ground when I had put it on the bench to make it easier for me to put on. Repeatedly sarcastically told me that I was certified and I should know what to do and how to do things. Spent the first 40 minutes giving a dive lesson to the other couple in our group. Visibility was horrible, I began following another diver accidentally and she pulled me and was angry towards me. The currents were strong, she helped the another woman by pulling her to the boat. I held onto the woman’s arm and she peeled my hand off saying she was only pulling one person in. She left me. As I was getting to the boat finally, I see her taking my son back under water. I was ready to join them and she told me that I was NOT invited because I separated from the group and I’m a danger! She is the most despicable disgusting person ever. I’m a paying customer and I was treated horribly.

Based on the details listed in the website I realistically expected to swim in deep water where I could not touch the floor, through lots of different fish and corals for 4 hours. This was certainly not the case and I was left very disappointed. I didn't see a variety of fish or any corals, was in shallow water for roughly 1 hour. I definitely would not have booked this trip if I had known the realistic details upfront. Website states "you’ll start by learning the basics in the safety of the shallow water, and will have time to practice the different diving techniques, memorize the safety rules, and familiarize yourself with the equipment before heading out. Once you’re feeling comfortable, jump back on the boat and sail out to one of the island’s dive sites"..... This was not my experience. We remained in shallow water, approx. 10m from the shore and did not go back on the boat to a deeper location or different site. Obviously that close to shore is not going to provide corals, the opportunity to swim or see a large amount of fish varieties. Website states: "explore the underwater world of the Gold Coast, and swim among a rainbow of tropical fish and other marine life" ... this was not true for me, saw 1 type of silver fish with an occasional small black one Website states: "On completion of your guide, you’ll be presented with a dive certificate" - did not receive this Website states: After around 4 hours on the island return to shore, where a driver will be waiting to take you back"...... i did not spend 4 hours on the island. My total tour time was 4 hours from hotel collection at 7am to return at roughly 11am ... Time on island was approx. 1.5 hours and time in water was roughly 1 hour with some of this being safety so actual time looking at fish in very shallow water is less than that. I do not feel the experience details described my trip accurately. I had high expectations based on the description, which were not met. Maybe this was a one off or plans changed but overall I was left feeling very dissapointed after what was supposed to be one of the highlights of my holiday.

It is an absolutely amazing experience. The staff/instructors are wonderful people who help make the experience so much better!!
