  Definitely the stand out experience of this trip and possibly my life. The helicopter ride allows you to see the vastness of the Great Barrier Reef and it is a site to behold. We were greeted by our marine biologist and she was a treasure. She made sure that we were comfortable and then showed us all the amenities of the pontoon. The day was incredible! If you don’t want to swim, there are many activities that allow you to observe the underwater world. If you want to snorkel or dive, it’s a dream experience. Our assigned marine biologist was extremely knowledgeable and shared so many details explaining the complexities of the life in the reef. The lunch was delicious. The ability to move about on our own pace and swim beyond the borders to see the turtle in the reef made the day top notch! The only feedback that I would offer to the tour operator is to include in the description that the check in for the tour needs to be 30-45 minutes before the published “start” time. We were planning to arrive at 10:30am but at 10am I received a phone asking to arrive as soon as possible. This was not clear in the meeting instructions provided. The rest of the day was the most amazing day ever. I’ll remember it forever.

  I would like to recognise Jin, who is one of the crew members and the diving team. I accidentally drop the iphone with water proof bag right straight through the gap between wooden flooring. I helplessly witness my phone slowly sink. As it is closed to the end time (closed to 3pm) and diving team has called it a day, one of the crew members mentioned there is nothing the crew can do. Jin approached and mentioned he would talk to the diving team. I did ask whether possible to help take a look tomorrow. To my surprise, during the ferry back to Cairns, Jin took the mobile + bag to me and said the diving team help me retrieve. The phone includes lots of priceless photo and means a lot to me. Really appreciate Jin and the diving team! Although the weather/ sky was not good, the excellent hospitality / caring mindset did make my day!

• Amazing experience on my first time ever scuba diving - especially thanks to outstanding Sofia!

  I gave myself a push and chose the option to go scuba diving for the first time in my life. As I had no experience whatsoever, I was grateful that the preliminary instructions on the boat were easy to follow even for not-so-quick-witted me. But my actual luck was that my instructor who accompanied me in the water was a super-patient, competent, and well-spirited young woman called Sofia. She guided me for well over 30 minutes through the breathtaking scenary under water, let me make a lot of stops so that I could adjust to the pressure in the ears, and pointing me me to all the beautiful fauna and flora, including a huge variety of fish species and even a water turtle. It was an experience of a lifetime, and I am so very grateful that was able to share it specifically with Sofia. At the end Sofia also gave me a certificate for my first time ever scuba diving. I can hardly recommend this experience enough. You won't regret it.

  We left Cairns around 9, and sailed for an hour and a half to the pontoon. During the trip we had hot tea or coffee and donuts. I am a certified diver and I signed up for a dive. The dive was shallow (10 meters), they had a deeper wall dive that I elected not to do. After the dive we were served a delicious lunch. In the afternoon I snorkeled and took a glass bottom boat ride. All included in the cost. The snorkeling was some of the best I’ve seen. The return trip was smooth sailing and we were served snacks. The staff were very helpful. If you are coming to Australia and are a certified driver this trip is a must.
