Scuba Dive the S.S. Yongala Wreck on the Great Barrier Reef.

Hi Beverly, Thank you so much for the lovely review! We’re thrilled you had such an incredible dive and got to experience the reef at its best. It means a lot to hear our crew helped make the day so special, we’d look forward to welcoming you back on board again soon! Warmly,

Hello Sarah, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We acknowledge your comments and appreciate the opportunity to provide clarification regarding your experience diving the SS Yongala with us. At this time of year, water temperatures are water temperatures are higher than average, approximately 28°C at the surface and 26–27°C at depth. In these conditions, most divers choose to wear stinger suits for comfort, reduced buoyancy, and protection from marine stingers. On this occasion, a crew member offered their personal wetsuit to you to ensure additional comfort for you during the dives. Dive briefings were conducted in smaller groups to enhance clarity while the vessel travelled at a reduced speed. This approach is standard practice on the longer journey to the SS Yongala, allowing all divers to receive comprehensive information without delaying arrival at the site. The briefings included dive site navigation, marine life, and all relevant safety procedures. The SS Yongala is known for its strong currents, which contribute to its unique diving conditions. The crew performed current checks while setting up the descent and mermaid lines and advised all divers—particularly those diving unguided—to remain on these lines at all times. These safety lines extend from the vessel to the top of the wreck to support controlled descents and ascents. The expected current conditions were also reiterated during final gear-up to ensure all divers were aware of the environment. We understand that your experience did not meet your expectations and will take your comments into account as we continue to review and improve our operations. Wetsuits will be made available again for this dive site in the future to ensure guest comfort across varying preferences. We appreciate your acknowledgement of the crew’s friendliness. The SS Yongala remains one of Australia’s most exceptional dive sites, and we hope that despite the challenges you were able to enjoy its remarkable marine life.

Merci d'avoir partagé votre avis. Nous comprenons qu'il puisse être décevant de voir une plongée annulée en raison d'un faible nombre de participants. Comme indiqué sur notre site Web et notre plateforme de réservation, nous exigeons un nombre minimum de participants et des conditions météorologiques favorables pour garantir une expérience sûre et agréable. Malheureusement, lorsque ces conditions ne sont pas réunies, nous ne pouvons pas organiser l'excursion. Nous sommes heureux d'apprendre que vous avez pu découvrir l'épave du Yongala avec un autre opérateur. Merci encore pour votre avis et nous espérons que vous envisagerez de plonger avec nous à l'avenir. Cordialement, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that it can be disappointing when a dive is canceled due to low participant numbers. As stated on our website and booking platform, we require a minimum number of participants and favourable weather conditions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. Unfortunately, when these conditions aren’t met, we are unable to run the trip. We are glad to hear that you were able to experience the Yongala wreck with another operator. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope you'll consider diving with us in the future. Best regards,
