Great trip out to green island. Was a bit bumpy getting out but well worth it. Green Island was beautiful. The sea was very cold so wear wetsuits if offered. The submersible was amazing, we saw so much of the great barrier reef. Food had good choices too great day out. Lots of time to chill on the beach and snorkel.

This is an excellent opportunity in a reasonable budget to get out to the reef. Unfortunately Green Island doesn't have a great deal of coral anymore. But still saw some blue and pink coral, a brain coral and an anemone. Loads of great tropical fish.

Fantastic activity, chilled beach day with snorkeling at leisure, although there is not loads of coral we saw amazing fish, turtles, starfish, shells, a hidden anemone with a nemo family, giant clams, sting rays, it was great. Ice cream on board on the way back was the perfect ending. Staff are fantastic, boat facilities also awesome.
