VELTRA tours & activities, fun things to do

A trip down under

The scuba diving was fun. I'd recommend for first timers to minimize their trip to just the single tank dive, so they can decide if it is really something they would like. It does get tiring fairly quickly, so a single trip, while it may seem short, is more than enough for the first time. I'd recommend also going straight to the Sheraton reef where you are GUARANTEED to see at least a few sea turtles and get some great pictures. It takes a while to acclimate to the undersea pressure, so if you have the slightest hint of a cold don't go! Seriously, your ears will thank you! I had a headache and trouble hearing for days after my dive. Small price to pay for what I got to see, but you might take some extra vitamins the few days up to your dive, just in case.
