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.

Underwater wonderland
Nemo, turtles, rays and coral as far as you can see. The crew were passionate about protecting the reef and it really showed. Unforgettable.

Bucket-list ticked
Swimming over the coral with turtles gliding past is something else. Great safety briefing and heaps of time to explore. Highly recommend.

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.

Turtles everywhere!
We saw green turtles, giant clams and a huge Maori wrasse. The marine biologist on board pointed everything out. Lunch on the boat was great too.

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.
