Big fish, Big wreck, Big adrenalin! Adrenalin Dive specialises in day trips for divers to the Wreck of the SS Yongala. The Yongala Wreck is rated in 'Australia's Ten Best Dive Sites'. The SS Yongala is a passenger steamship that sank in 1911, with the loss of all 122 passengers on board. The wreck begins 14m below the surface and extends to 28m. Since it is the only reef structure in the region, the marine life gathers at the wreck providing for an unforgettable diving experience. The Yongala Wreck is a protected site (Historic Shipwrecks Act 1976) within the Great Barrier Marine Park. The artefacts, marine life and variety of corals that cover the wreck are spectacular. Townsville is situated in North Queensland on the east coast of Australia.

Adrenalin Dive is an established dive business owned and operated by divers, for divers, since 1987. Adrenalin Dive is the longest established day trip operator, and the most experienced Yongala dive trip operator in Townsville.

Tropical Cruise and Dive operates dive and snorkel day trips to one of the best examples of marine bio-diversity on the Great Barrier Reef, Wheeler Reef.
Wheeler was part of the 5% of the Marine Park that was set aside from fishing and collecting in 1989. So having been protected for 16 years, it can truly be claimed to be in pristine condition.
As the only day boat permitted to do daily trips to Wheeler Reef we normally have this wonderful place all to ourselves.
