I went on two different reef experiences, and this was by far the better of the two. The two reefs they take you to dive on are absolutely blow-your-mind phenomenal. I am from Hawaii, and I can say the beauty of the reef sites they take you to in this tour is unlike anything I’ve seen anywhere else. I also did the other tour the company offers, to green island, and the reefs within swimming distance from that island were not as impressive. Lots of sea grass and not as much vibrant coral. This is for sure the tour I would take my partner on if I bring him here one day. If you are a confident snorkeler, I can not recommend this enough. 10/10 stars. Phenomenal. The staff are awesome too. Super accommodating. The friend I was traveling with had an emergency appendectomy two days before our trip to Australia and couldn’t get in the water. The staff booked us on a different tour to green island and gave us complementary buffet, glass boat tour, and submarine experiences so she could see the reef too. 10/10 stars for stellar customer service. Lastly, this particular tour will give you a chance to understand the history, and learn about the indigenous culture, which you won’t get on other boats. Our tour only had about 20-25 guests on it, so you don’t gotta fight for seats or to get into the buffet line like you do on bigger tours as well. In short, all around awesomeness.

Fantastic snorkel day. Cultural and biological information was super interesting as well. Booked the snorkel safari when I was on the boat too which was brilliant with the biologist pointing out lots of interesting fish/corals and giving information. Loved it highly recommend 😊

I booked this trip because it was relatively cheap and seemed good value for money. We were well looked after by all the crew who were friendly and very helpful. The food was very good too. Unfortunately, conditions for snorkeling were not great at the two sites we visited - the water was very choppy - and everyone seemed to be using floating aids to improve their experience. The crew kept a look out for us and our safety and someone came out to me a couple of times to see if I was OK, which I really appreciated - I wasn't in trouble, but I was struggling. I noticed that they assisted others too. It was reassuring to see that they were on the ball and took our safety seriously. To finish our memorable day during our return to shore, some crew members gave us a very interesting and enjoyable presentation of aboriginal music, explaining and showing how a didgeridoo is played. Everyone seemed to really enjoy it. To end our day, all the crew played those same instruments to pipe us off the boat as we disembarked. As very memorable and enjoyable day and with a company that I'd highly recommend.

Great Experience for Scuba Diving! Sofia, Jeff, Drew and Jacob were very helpful and great! Definitely make sure you’re paying attention during instruction as this is your life and the instructors have tons of others to worry about as well! They were very kind and knowledgeable, very helpful and friendly! Great experience!
