Educational, Inspiring and Fun for All Ages

5.00What a fantastic experience! I visited with my grandchildren, Noah (8) and Annabeth (5), and both were completely captivated from start to finish. The tour struck the perfect balance between education and entertainment, making it engaging for children while still being fascinating for adults. We learned so much about coral, how it breeds and propagates, and the incredible work being done to restore and protect our reefs. The information was presented in a way that was easy to understand, and the hands-on elements kept the children interested throughout. The guides were knowledgeable, passionate, and wonderful with the kids. Noah and Annabeth came away with a much greater appreciation of the reef and plenty of stories to tell afterwards. It's inspiring to see such important conservation work happening, and we would highly recommend the Coral Farm tour to families, grandparents with grandchildren, and anyone interested in learning more about the wonders of our marine environment.
An eye opening experience

5.00Super informative and interesting tour of a world leading innovator - and the corals are gorgeous. Great to see an Aussie company supplying the world's commercial and private aquariums with amazing coral from the Australian coastline. The research into the regeneration of coral reefs with "super coral" is something to be proud of.
Brilliant Tour

5.00Really good educational tour focusing on the ecology and potential recovery of the Great Barrier Reef. Our guide was Nykitah and her knowledge and delivery was fantastic. It can be a bit warm, but hand fans are provided; the blue lights throw an odd colour for photos, but they provide a clip on filter for your phone - they have really thought the experience through. At just under an hour the tour is well paced and the working coral "farm" is fascinating to witness. The cultivation and collection techniques demonstrated, all done with ecological sustainability at the forefront, are great and the message for the survivability of the Coral is very positive. At $35 for the tour it's affordable and represents good value, more than happy to recommend as a "must do" for Bundaberg visitors and residents alike.
A thoroughly enjoyable...

5.00If someone had asked if I wanted to go see coral grow, I would have rolled my eyes.....but I came away a convert. If you have the opportunity to visit, you will learn so much about the facility and the research going on here to contribute to the preservation of the Great Barrier Reef that you will be telling anyone who will listen. I'm sure they are all very good ambassadors, but I hope you get the tour from Indie, whose contagious enthusiasm delighted all of us. She must be especially impressive talking to school kids (no surprise if she inspires youngsters to these fields of study).

5.00You are visiting a working coral farm not a pet shop, so you it might be a bit warm, but the experience is a fantastic look at the coral industry and some of the efforts to protect the reef for future generations.
