5.00We took a group of upper primary school students out for snorkeling with Adam and Jan. The guys were super friendly, helpful and informative. The students all had a great time and enjoyed their experience. We would recommend this opportunity to anyone making their way to Magnetic Island.

5.00A great day, Calvin and Jack were friendly hosts. Very informative, helpful and safety minded the whole time. Snorkelling was great fun and morning tea was terrific. Lots of beautiful fruits and cake and a lovely cup of tea delivered from the boat to the beach. Throughout the day we took so many beautiful photos, the scenery was spectacular. Magnetic Island was a pleasant surprise and well worth doing any of their boat tours.
An amazing day with passionate tour guides

5.00This morning’s reef exploration trip was exceptional, and we are incredibly grateful for the outstanding experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and caring, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the start. Their way of sharing the history of the reef through engaging and captivating stories was fantastic, making the experience not only educational but also highly enjoyable. Their extensive knowledge about the reef and the animals inhabiting the island was impressive and added a deep level of insight to the trip. We appreciated having enough time for snorkelling, which allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the reef's beauty. Additionally, the clear and transparent rules on board the vessel ensured that everything ran smoothly and safely, adding to our sense of comfort and enjoyment. Thank you for a truly memorable adventure!

5.00One of the best tours I’ve been on. Relaxed knowledgeable and friendly guides. Saw SO much wild life, including whales. The tour was flexible to take into changes in conditions, needs and the animals we saw. Food was plenty, and we saw the sunset on the way home. It was magic. Will do it again and recommended it.
Great afternoon out

5.00We had a great time with Aquascene. They were very well organised - left on time, all gear was well maintained, everything went smoothly and we didn't feel rushed at all. Afternoon tea was great - nice mix of fruit and other snacks. We brought two five year olds and they both absolutely loved the trip. There were plenty of options for them to snorkel, or just float on the pontoon. They loved using the paddle boards and boogie boards in the shallow water at the second stop.
