From start to finish, the cruise and tour around Moreton Island was excellent ! The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and very knowledgeable. We enjoyed every moment spent on the cruise and we were able to take incredible videos and photos of our time snorkelling 🤿 Highly Recommend ! Very family friendly and loved having the food included plus the opportunity to purchase extras from the open bar for snacks and alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks was definitely a treat !

My husband and I had an amazing day out! Crew were friendly, professional, knowledgeable and most importantly fun!! Would definitely recommend! The whole experience was unforgettable!! I will definitely go again

hailey_m

Absolutely loved this trip! I have done other tours on the island but this one took the cake! Having the boat take us right up to the wrecks meant we didn't have to do the whole swim out and back. The free time we had on shore was the perfect amount of time, and having a fully licensed bar on board made for some sweet treats throughout the day. WOuld recommend this company any time! what great value and experience!

We loved our magical day cruising to Moreton Island. Perfect weather. Great boat, lovely snacks and lunch, friendly and knowledgeable staff. 10/10

Cannot recommend highly enough. We have done this trip twice now and both times it has been such a great experience. The day is well organised and staff are professional and friendly. During the snorkel we saw turtles, a wobbegong and so many fish - all abilities were catered for. Lunch was great and relaxing on the beach with a cocktail was such a highlight. The day finishes with an eco tour where we saw so many massive sea turtles, stingrays and starfish. Do yourself a favour and book a trip!

A fantastic day in and out of the water. Initially, I was a little nervous about snorkelling but quickly felt at ease with safety briefings from the crew, their help with use of equipment, pool noodles and also a small safety boat following along the wrecks with the snorkelling group. Highly recommend! An amazing experience to enjoy!

Amazing day trip, just what we wanted! The crew were all so helpful and vibrant, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The whole day was very well organised but also very relaxed and we didn’t feel rushed. The snorkel guides were great, we felt safe and looked after, and the marine life was incredible! We particularly liked the beach service, where we could relax on the beautiful sand and have snacks and drinks delivered to us- first class! If you’re looking for a wholesome, fun and beautiful day on the ocean, this is your charter! Thank you Dolphin Wild!

We really enjoyed our day in beautiful weather, and great company. It’s such a lovely cruise over and once there we all lined up for our snorkeling experience on the artificial reef - you did need a reasonably high level of fitness and at 80 I am glad I swim most days? Once we were back and dried off, we had our lunch of rolls and salad plus a nice cold beer. Having cruised around seeking dolphins and turtles we headed back to the Marina! A great day was had by all.

Great tour, amazing crew and absolutely stunning place near Brisbane. Strongly recommend this tour to anyone. The snorkeling was the best part of the tour, we saw turtles, sting rays and lots of different fish (never seen so many before!). The food on the boat was good too and the crew did everything to make everyone comfortable and ensure we had all had fun and stayed safe.
