Exceptional day

5.00Excellent day - attentive, informative and very helpful crew. Made everyone comfortable and made substantial efforts to have a whale shark view for all. Great skipper. All staff were particularly thoughtful and encouraging of those with less confidence. Plenty of fresh and tasty food and beverages and clean and spacious boat. Very impressive in all aspects.
Bucket list tick.. amazing!

5.00What an amazing day! The crew were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We snorkeled in the reef in the morning, then the hunt began, with the spotter plane looking for Whale Sharks. We suddenly got called out of the water on our afternoon snorkel. The excitement built as they had spotted a whale shark. We were extremely lucky to swim with the Whale Shark twice. What an amazing bucket list experience!!
Great experience

5.00Thank you to the whole team for this unforgettable family moment. All the staff are super friendly, friendly. We were lucky to be able to go out again because we did not see a whale shark the first time. You can go with your eyes closed.
Great tour!

5.00I want to thank Adam, Jess and their fantastic crew (including photographer Tiarnna and their female main Lead member whose name escapes me) for the fantastic whale shark drive and photos. I always felt very safe and secure with them, as there were many crew members supporting the participants onboard. The female main lead member actually saw me in distress once and immediately did the right thing to ensure I was fine. The food was plentiful and delicious. We were able to see 3 whale sharks even though it was off season and also some humpback whales from afar. What a special experience that I will never forget. One suggestion is for them to have thicker wetsuits or allow us to wear two wetsuits as it was freezing :) however overall I am very glad I booked this tour!
Do this if you can!

5.00It was an unseasonably windy day, we were told! It was still lovely and sunny, but given it was past peak Whale Shark season, we were prepared that we might not see them - but we did! The crew were amazing and so knowledgeable. We highly recommend this trip. On a day like ours, I’d definitely recommend sea sickness tablets, as even a great crew can’t control a large swell!
4 mates covering 3 states and a territory in twenty-thrive!

5.004 mates covering 3 states and a territory in twenty twenty-thrive had the best time!! The weather was perfect, the staff were awesome and the marine life put on a spectacular show! From whale sharks to sleeping stingrays and a gorgeous array of colorful fish, this trip had it all….and the food was delicious topped off with a glass of bubbles to celebrate our day, a day we’ll remember forever. Thank you all so much!!
A whale of a time!

5.00Very well run. Great young, friendly staff and all safety briefings done in a cool and clear way. Food and morning and afternoon tea provided. Lunch was excellent. We saw two giant whale sharks and large sea turtles mating! The boat was crowded with 20 but could accommodate this. The only issue is that the wetsuits were a bit worn out and should be at least 2/3 ml rather than 2 ml. A simple upgrade would import the comfort levels as you are in the water quite a long time. That did not detract from the day however.
