Catherine – AustraliaNovember 28, 2023 – Verified booking
The opportunity to free snorkel was amazing. We found the instructions for the day were not always clear … we had been on a different tour previously so knew what to expect to a degree , however, many of the other tourists appeared just as confused as us at times . The smaller tour operator didn’t feel as professional as the big competitors , safety instructions were rushed and some of the stinger suits and fins looked worn out . On the plus side we had a fantastic experience. We chose not to do the guided tour of the island Preferring to do what we had come out for ….., snorkelling the GBR. We weren’t disappointed ….. other than not seeing a turtle … but hey the rest, and seeing a reef shark made up for it 🙂 Great day, refreshments lovely all staff friendly and helpful. Would we book again absolutely !! But if I was a nervous first time snorkeller …., I’d go with a more experienced not too big company.

We were able to do a guided snorkel tour, just make sure that you know how to snorkel beforehand as it is not a beginners course. It was easy to follow and I’ve only snorkled once before 5 years ago. It was so cool to be so close to the coral and the fish, seeing turtles right below was amazing. Everyone in the crew was friendly and helpful.

Best ever. Knowledgeable friendly staff. Underwater activities were great with full explanations of the life on the reef. Many different marine animals to see including reef shark, turtles and a large variety of fish. Kevin, Irene and Ruby looked after us keeping us informed and fed and hydrated.
