We had a lovely day on Major Tom's snorkelling cruise. My wife and are 70 and 71 and she probably spent more time snorkelling than anyone else. She had a new face mask that had an optical prescription so this was the first time in years that she had such clarity of viewing. The fish and corals were plentiful and colourful and it was easy to reach without diving down. Staff and fellow passengers on board were kind and helpful.

A well organised, professional yet chilled and fun day out. The team knows how to make everyone feel welcome and in for a great day. Good quality snorkelling gear, a boat with character and space. A crew that is chilled, friendly and feels a natural at what they do. The water clarity, temperature, sealife and almost absence of current, make staying in until the very last moment too short a time! Sensational. Good bbq lunch, very Aussie menu, good fun. A nice visit to a local village. I enjoyed the day a lot, it was my Vanuatu highlight. Thank you!

What an amazing day!!! Sailing with our Skipper, Ben and his crew, through the calm waters around the islands was so relaxing. We were firstly taken to the reef area where all sorts of underwater life was seen. Then across to Lelepa Island to visit the local village Mumma's Market, before a delicious onboard lunch. Some more snorkelling then before the engine was cut, sails were hoisted and we cruised our way back to port. How casual and calming. We'll be back.

This was the best day trip we did in Vanuatu. Very friendly crew, beautiful scenery, amazing snorkelling, great lunch and an interesting walk through a local village to a craft market. Highly recommend this trip. Thanks Ben and crew.

What an amazing day on Major Tom! Seriously—don’t forget your reef shoes and a bit of cash for the island stop, because you won’t want to miss a thing. The weather was perfect, Ben and the crew were beyond friendly, and the snorkeling was out-of-this-world. So many vibrant fish, great-quality gear, and absolutely delicious food. It’s honestly one of the best places you can be in all of Vanuatu. And the Piña Coladas? Unbelievably good! I’d go back in a heartbeat!
