Fantastic experience
Great day out It’s amazing to explore the underwater world. We gained more appreciation as the trip progressed. We will definitely do it again next time we come to Port Douglas

Great holiday, lovely reef tours
The crews are really helpful and response to every request. There are prescription glasses and life jackey available for non-swimmers. And yes, I still enjoy the reef tour even if I cannot swim. Beautiful sight seeing as well

Well worth the Trip
It took about 1.5hrs to reach the first snorkeling point. The smallest of 3 reefs we snorkled on. Saw lots of fish species and a baby ray. We went out on a day with a swell but visibility still great. Boat parks up right next to the reef and if you can't swim or float you get a noodle. In-between the 3 reefs morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea were served. Water was warm, I swam in a bikini with no issues. Loved it well worth the trip
