Stunning coral, bit choppy
The reef itself was incredible with amazing visibility. Sea was a little rough on the way out but the snorkelling more than made up for it.

The reef is out of this world
Snorkelling the Great Barrier Reef was a dream come true — turtles, reef sharks and coral in every colour imaginable. The crew found us the best spots.

Beautiful reef, busy pontoon
The reef was gorgeous and the visibility perfect. Got a touch crowded at the pontoon but easy to swim off to quieter spots. Loved it.

Best snorkelling of my life
Crystal clear water and so much marine life. The staff were brilliant with nervous swimmers and the gear was all top quality.

Amazing day on the water
Well-run trip with plenty of time in the water. A couple of people got seasick but the crew handled it well. Coral gardens were spectacular.

Worth every cent
The outer reef is so much better than the closer spots. Warm water, tons of fish and a super friendly crew. Snorkel and the glass-bottom boat were both great.
