Could not resist getting in the water from the boat! A small cruise to a handy snorkel location. Friendly staff. Good fins and mask supplied. 30 minutes roaming the ocean. Fruit and cuppa back on board. Then get on the drag net for the trip back.

It was a fantastic experience! Swimming with sea lions was incredible! The short sailing trip allowed us to visit the island too, and the crew was super friendly.

Fantastic day out with a great crew. We were taken to the most beautiful location to snorkel. Weather allowed for sailing with the kids even able to help bring in the sail. So much fun !!

craigdL8183WO

Fantastic. A must do experience. Equipment was great. Snorkelling was amazing and Jules/Anuska were very welcoming. The sailing at the end was perfect way to finish.

Cracking afternoon out on the water with the super friendly crew of Charter 1. Kids were invited to join in on raising/lowering the sails, as well as joining Captain Jules as he steered us home. Guided snorkelling was aaahmazing and a highlight of our family holiday. 8yo was easily able to keep up on the guided tour and loved the experience (frothing to go again). Plenty of marine life to view - an abundance of fish, sea lions, cheeky stingray, coral galore. Cargo net on the way back to the jetty capped off a perfect day. Would highly recommend to anyone! Thanks so much for having us!

Great experience. Awesome snorkeling. Also provided ideas on other places to snorkel around Rotto which were fabulous.

I was really excited for this tour but found it a little disappointing. The equipment advertised wasn't pulled out, until a couple of people asked after the kayak only for it to be packed up when everyone got back from the snorkel. The snorkel gear was simply not adequate for this type of tour operator. Not enough flippers in common sizes and many of the snorkels were broken. Overall, if you just want a nice sailing trip I would recommend this tour. However, if you are keen on snorkelling, you will have a smoother experience hiring snorkel gear for $20 from the ferrry / pedal and flipper and going yourself from the bays.
