5.00A wonderful experience indeed. The only issue is that the submissable activity was cancelled on our trip and that was the activity I was looking forward to do. Otherwise glass bottom boat was amazing.

5.00Amazing Day at the Great Barrier Reef – Thanks to the Wonderful Sunlover Team! My wife and I had an absolutely unforgettable experience with Sunlover Reef Cruises, and we’re so glad we chose them for our Great Barrier Reef adventure! From the moment we stepped onboard, we felt welcomed and well looked after. A special thank you to Leo and Andrea, who were incredibly kind, patient, and helpful throughout the whole trip. I had never snorkeled before and was honestly a bit nervous, but both Leo and Andrea took the time to guide me, explain everything clearly, and support me through the experience. Because of their encouragement, I was able to try snorkeling for the first time – and it was amazing! I’m so glad I gave it a go. The reef itself was absolutely stunning – vibrant coral, colorful fish, and crystal-clear waters. The pontoon was well-equipped, clean, and safe, with plenty of activities for everyone to enjoy, whether you’re swimming, snorkeling, or just relaxing and soaking in the views. The semi-submarine and glass-bottom boat were also a great way to explore the reef without getting wet. The entire Sunlover team was outstanding – friendly, professional, and truly passionate about what they do. You can tell they love sharing the beauty of the reef with their guests. Everything was very well organized, from the safety briefings to the lunch (which was delicious!), and even the return journey was smooth and comfortable. This was truly one of the highlights of our trip, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re visiting Cairns and want to explore the Great Barrier Reef, I highly recommend Sunlover Reef Cruises – especially if you’re new to snorkeling or just want a fun, safe, and memorable adventure. Big thanks again to Leo, Andrea, and the entire crew – you made our day truly special!

5.00As advertised - no surprises. Weather plays a big role in Summer with thunderstorms in Jan and Feb in this area. We were lucky and had an uneventful day. Prepare for the heat and humidity for sure. Only issue - vegetarian options missing other than salad, fruit and bread at the Fitzroy island buffet.
Great family day out
