Another amazing dive! You guys get around!

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Haha yeah but we live in Australia now 🇦🇺

[@sammoyers905]

An absolutely beautiful and fun video! And I have come to expect nothing less from you two. You never disappoint.... ❤️ I have noticed Mark's propensity for the term, "as well", as well. But Holly, you sneak it in on occasion, as well... Eagerly awaiting your next video... as well.... Dive safe.

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

I need to lose the as well 😂 We had fun and hopefully make the videos more blog style over coming months. All appreciate the comments mate

[@sammoyers905]

@Blue Horizon Diving I love the videos you two put out, even if you continue to say, "as well". Only a small amount of good-natured ribbing. Keep up the wonderful videos, with the two of you being yourselves. 🥰

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Hahaha always welcome to rib us 😂 we always just love having fun and enjoying life. Hopefully get to dive together one day

[@sammoyers905]

@Blue Horizon Diving I look forward to it...

[@johnmontgomery2735]

Still on my bucket list. Is it worth it? Great to see you back Holly!

[@hollywakely3330]

Thanks!! I’ve missed the channel! It’s totally worth it, Norman Reef had the best visibility of all the dives we did but green island had some great wild life (I won’t spoil the next video yet)

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

So so worth it and apparently Lady Elliot is the best diving in GBR. Hoping to get there soon to check it out.

[@theanswriz42]

Can't wait to see the next dive, as well.

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Thank you 😊 GBR is awesome. Got another video coming up soon on it. Hope to get back up for more filming as awesome there.

[@Alex000113]

I was just thinking the video quality was very good and that I hadnt seen any bulky lights as you mentioned the GoPro 11. Looks like a great trip, airbnb has opened a lot of options for travel. That looked like a really nice appt.

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

It is a beautiful spot for sure. Yeah, no lights or filters used on these dives using the GoPro 11. Very true, AirBnB makes it so much easier and cheaper.

[@christopherfoster3672]

You guys must be minted. You have a proffension outside of diving or both dive professionals? Must be nice to be able to decide to fly half way across the world because the weather looks a bit sh#t 🤣. Very jealous. Keep up the great content though enjoying your twos vlogs 😁

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

We wish we were minted 😆 Yeah we are both full time dive instructors and on dive instructor pay. Don't worry we weren't flying around world because of bad weather as we live in Sunshine Coast in Australia. The flight was only 2 hours to Cairns. 😆 Mark was finishing working in Saint Lucia for Kids Sea Camp and then moved to Australia 🇦🇺. Thank you for supoorting our channel 😀

[@nathannartker1745]

Nice video, clarity of the water and weather look great. Which month did you visit? Interested to scuba dive cairns area but concerned with weather or water temperatures during winter months.

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Thank you! We were there in March time and it was lovely, not too hot outside but a good temp in the water. Weather wise, winter is the best, they get the calmest water and the clearest water, it’s just slightly colder. We have a friend who was there 2 weeks ago and the water was 27 degrees, calm and clear

[@Miguelskytwins]

You guys have a great channel!! I subscribe! Greettings from Edinburgh 😊

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Welcome and thank you 😊

[@sambroder8569]

You guys are crazy - as well!

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Pretty much 😂

[@MrBarrySugarman]

If you shoot with a GoPro red filter for blue water or magenta filter for green water it will color correct all.

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Thank you. Yeah we have had mixed bag of experience with the filters.

[@bradwelch7425]

Welcome to Australia, Plenty of places to dive around Brisbane locally. Lady Elliot Island, Lady Musgrave Is and /or Heron Island. I am partial to Lady Elliot for the best diving on the GBR. If you ever get down to the gold coast, the gold coast seaway is a reasonable good dive. You guy's should of looked me up. Enjoy our reef's Cheers Brad

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Thanks mate. Yeah we have been living here for a few months now. We work for SunReef on Sunny Coast. Will be here for next few years and defo want to come down and dive Goldie. They got that new floating reef there we want to do video on. Have you dived it yet? Will defo reach out when come down to Goldie. Lady Elliot high on list

[@bradwelch7425]

@@BlueHorizonDiving I just bought a house on the Sunny Coast and the inlaws live there too, so I do go up there on a regular basis. Also I get my tanks filled up at SunReef opposite underwater world. Man, one of you guys probably even served maybe. How crazy is that. Anyway gotta get back to work. Cheers

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Small world 😂

[@bigchrysthomas321]

@@bradwelch7425 I'm new to diving and will be spending a week on the Ocen Quest in late March. What size suit do i need, I use a 7 MM here in the States?

[@bradwelch7425]

@@bigchrysthomas321 Gday there Chrys, I am guessing you mean Ocean Quest in Cairns. I would sway towards a 5mm or 3mm. Depending on how your body can handle temperatures. I dive all year round here on the Gold Coast and use a 3mm suit (Shorty) March is still pretty much our summer and just heading into Autumn but you will be in the tropics. Hope this will help and happy diving and be safe. Cheers Brad

[@davelundergoesunder]

Brilliant video! Did you guys see any sharks over there? Was that a deco stop being made from the aluminum bar off the swim platform? Don't worry about saying, as well. It's all part of the charm. Decades ago I had a teenage cousin visit us in NY from across the pond. I ended up giving him the nickname, "as well" I would ask, "where's aswell?"

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Hey mate, When we went to Green Island, next video coming up, the day after we had loads of sharks which was awesome. They are all doing the Disciver Scuba Diving experience. So if have long hang bar you can take them in ocean for confined skills section before actual dive. Hahaha yeah it just habit but it the charm 😆

[@nickdanger61]

Clever intro, I liked it! Holly - where'd you get the whale shark rashy? I'm pretty sure Beth would love to see one under the tree come this December.

[@hollywakely3330]

Thank you! It’s part of the Ocean Ramsey Xcel collection, comes in full wetsuit form as well, they have all sorts of patterns of different sharks, but obviously Whale shark is the right choice 😆

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Holly got you 😆 what she said

[@federico4941]

amazing video, nice colors and marine life... which camera did you use for shooting underwater videos?

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Thank you. It was the GoPro Hero 11 Black with no lights or filters.

[@CoopersAmputeeLifestyle]

What a great dive the visibility is amazing there on the roof what camera did you use to film this because she did you guys use the GoPro 11

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Thanks Cooper. Everything was filmed on GoPro 11 except the car and airport shots which was on an iPhone.

[@CoopersAmputeeLifestyle]

@@BlueHorizonDiving wow the GoPro 11 footage is great that extra big sensor that they put in those cameras really does make the underwater footage look a lot more clear and I appealing I need to start using mine

[@janaserranilla9345]

Which boat tour did u getv

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

We were on Reef Encounters this time but we normally jump on Silver Swift or Silver Sonic boats.

[@janaserranilla9345]

@@BlueHorizonDiving thank u!

[@catherinewakely7780]

70km out!!!!! Wow - that's a long long way! How long does it take to get 70 km out? (Or 17 maybe?)

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Nope 70km takes over an hour to almost 2 to get out there

[@sambroder8569]

@@BlueHorizonDiving WOW!!!!

[@susan4273]

How do you avoid getting bitten by sharks

[@BlueHorizonDiving]

Sharks do not bother with you underwater. Hollywood has given them a bad name. You are more likely to be killed by a cow than a shark
