      We had a great day, all three stops had wonderful sights on the reef for snorkeling. The staff were lovely and the whole day was so well organised. Lunch was a mix of hot and cold options and there was plenty of food for all.
    • Fantastic Experience at Great Barrier Reef.

      My family and I had a great time. The crew were fantastic. They were very friendly and made sure we were comfortable. We snorkeled twice and scuba dived. We had snorkeled several times before but never scuba dived. Jon was awesome in teaching us what we needed to know and made us very comfortable. We had so much fun we are thinking about getting certified. The my kids were in a separate group from us in diving but the crew made sure we could get together for a photo under water, it was great. I got a little sea sick on the ride back so I would recommend taking dramamine. The crew were very attentive to make me feel comfortable by giving my ice, water, and checking on me often. I highly recommend Silversonic Outer Great Barrier Reef Cruise to go snorkeling and diving at the Great Barrier Reef.
