Amazing trip! I was a little sceptical after seeing some negative reviews. However, this was one of my favourite tours that we have done in Australia. The snorkeling was amazing, we saw Jelly fish, sharks, turtles and an array of fish. The price we paid was very reasonable for everything that was included. We didn't purchase lunch, but there is a bar and cafe on the island. Although, the option to pay for the buffet lunch is reasonable. With hindsight, we would have selected that option. We selected the glass boat view and really enjoyed that part of the trip, got a good view of the coral and sea creatures. The glass was clean, so could get a really good view of the coral. Overall, would totally recommend doing this trip 5/5!

Nice day trip! All gear for snorkeling was provided and lunch was really good. On the island we were free to plan our activities, the service is more like a ‘ferry’ to get to the island and back again which makes it pretty flexible in terms of how much time to spend for snorkeling etc. Only issue we had is that we did not receive an email from the tour provider with all tour details and the voucher. This gave us a hard time boarding the boat and getting our snorkeling gear. We were sent from one crew member to the other…

Trip was great, the tours were on time and really informative. The Crew was lovely and helpful and the island was stunning. did the all day trip and had enough time to see the Crocs and Turtle be fed, eat lunch and chill on the beach after doing the Glass bottom and semi sub tour
