Yes, and you will need to provide your certification card on check-in.&nbsp;

This is in open water and the crew suggests you consider seasickness tablets to minimize the risk of seasickness affecting your trip. There will not be any rebookings or refunds for being seasick.

The Wharf complex has 4-hour parking available, however, you will need to find suitable parking for the tour you are on as some of the trips will be over 4 hours. There are some unlimited parking spaces available outside of The Wharf Mooloolaba / SEA Life car park, however, please keep in mind especially if you are on an 11:30 am or later trip that parking can get very busy. Please give yourself at least 15-20 minutes for parking.&nbsp;<a href="https://sunreef.com.au/parking-map/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">You can find a parking map of The Wharf Mooloolaba here.</a>

Dive one of the world&#39;s best wreck sites, the Ex-HMAS Brisbane. Located less than 3 miles offshore, this decommissioned guided-missile destroyer now serves as an artificial reef and home to many marine animals.

&nbsp;

When you arrive, visit the crew at the check-in desk to show your diver certification card and ensure that your gear is organized. If you bring your own gear, the crew can carry it down to the dock where you can set it up. If you pre-book hire gear, everything will be organized for you prior to check-in.

&nbsp;

On&nbsp;departure&nbsp;to the Ex-HMAS Brisbane, the trained crew will provide a thorough briefing for all divers about the site and answer any questions about it. Once the boat exits the calm waters of the Mooloolaba River system, it is around a 15-minute ride to the site. The vessel will be moored and the crew will help you set up to get in the water.

&nbsp;

Each dive is planned to last&nbsp;for either 50 minutes or will end to have you on the surface with 50 bar (whichever one comes first).

&nbsp;

Every dive is different depending on the conditions that day and time. Usually, the&nbsp;first dive&nbsp;will explore the length and outside of the Ex-HMAS Brisbane. The&nbsp;second dive&nbsp;will discover the depths and inside of the vessel.

&nbsp;

Between dives,&nbsp;you will come up for a surface interval where you are provided snacks and water. Feel free to bring along your own snacks if you have allergies or would like more substantial food.

&nbsp;

<h4>The Ex-HMAS Brisbane dive site</h4>

&nbsp;

Ex-HMAS Brisbane, a decommissioned guided-missile destroyer is located just 2.9 nautical miles offshore, making it an easy venture out and is available to dive all year round.&nbsp;Sitting bolt upright, the Ex-HMAS Brisbane has 15 metres of water over her forward decks and 18 metres over her stern. Consistently good water clarity and minimal swell make for excellent diving.

&nbsp;

Explore outside the wreck and encounter an abundance of local aquatic sea life that inhabits her. Discover the depths of her hull, enter the engine room or even visit the control room where her kill switches are still intact.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Local inhabitants include a large bull &amp; eagle rays, angler fish, lionfish, blennies, nudibranchs, sea hares, squid and a school of juvenile red emperor and snapper. Other visitors include shovelled nose rays, greasy cod and eagle rays. An octopus has made a home in a pyrotechnic tube on the deck, while a resident school of predatory yellow-tailed kingfish now &#39;buzz&#39; the schools of bait fish surrounding the Ex-HMAS Brisbane. Up to 10 huge Queensland grouper have been seen at one time off the bow of the ship. A turtle has taken up residency on the aft funnel, and eagle rays cruise between the two funnels.

&nbsp;

There&#39;s also a considerable amount of soft corals to be seen, and hard corals are really getting established as well.

&nbsp;

Water temperatures range from 17C in winter to a summer high of 27C. Visibility averages around 15 metres, but up to 20 metres or more is not uncommon.

&nbsp;

After your dives are complete, the vessel will return&nbsp;to the shop, where the crew will unload and wash all your gear for you if you so wish.
