5.001 day earlier it was not yet clear until 2 pm whether there were enough guests, only 5, they wanted to leave open until 4:30 pm tour. Otherwise we could get 1 day later or full refund. Guy very nice. Then later received mail that everything clearly within itself had reported guests. So exactly 7:50 meeting point at the office which was 50 m from our pitch in the peoples caravan park. Super briefings, super help for me and my husband, over 60 and snorkeling newbies . Everything top and safe , always Eco Tours!!
UNREAL experience

5.00My boyfriend and I did the manta ray eco tour and had the most unreal day. The staff were super friendly and personable and really knowledgeable. We saw manta rays, reef sharks, octopus and soooo many gorgeous little fish and corals. HIGHLY recommend this trip to anyone visiting coral bay, or just visit the area specifically for this. We will definitely be doing this again.

5.00The team at Coastal Adventure Tours were exceptional. Friendly, welcoming, helpful, patient and full of local hospitality. Their knowledge and genuine care to their guests safety, wellbeing and education was first and foremost. Nothing was too much for them. They worked efficiently and hard to satisfy the needs of the guests and the tour objectives. We saw; Manta-ray, dolphins, sting rays, turtles, reef shark (baby) and more fish than we can name. Thank you Naomi, Brit and Fraser. Highly recommend.

5.00What an incredible day. As a family of four with two young children, it was incredible how the team supported us through the day so we all had the best time. All of the crew were incredible so personable so knowledgeable and amazing with the kids. We were beyond thrilled with the boat, the equipment, the food and most importantly the experience was above expectations. We saw so much wildlife and had so many opportunities to get in the water. Awesome!!!
