In the very beginning stage of planning a trip to Australia for diving. Dates are flexible, any time after June 2012. My previous trip to Cairns (as a nondiver) was in February, which I know is summer. Is there a better time of year to come down there with the focus of the trip being a liveaboard? Thinking surface conditions, viz, water temps. Been doing mostly Caribbean diving lately, annual trips to Roatan, so looking to change things up a bit.
I definitely would like to go out to Cod Hole, as I think that would have better diving than the Outer Reefs. I have my AOW, 70 logged dives, and pretty comfortable diver (although saying my nav skills suck might be a little too kind). Any recommendations for trips? Besides the GBR, any other diving around the east coast of Australia (i.e. south towards Melbourne). Thanks in advance for taking the time to read and any advice would be greatly appreciated, I'm sure these questions are asked a million times over!
