You will also have the opportunity to go bowling, join in the “Happy Hour” with your new friends from the four corners of the world and attend a conference given by an expert marine. At weekends, you will have the chance to do a cruise, go on an excursion to Stradbroke Island, to Byron Bay or to the city of Brisbane under the guidance of local guides who will be happy to show you their favourite spots.
