Nice simple experience of being on the water and friendly staff. No more interesting than being on any other boat or ferry in the area.

Awesome cruise. Sunset was beautiful as was the coral and the hosts! Informative and entertaining! Supper was yummy and the glass of bubbly on arrival was lovely! Definitely worth the visit!

Boat was nice and crew were very friendly. Advertised as "encounter the marvels of the Great Barrier Reef without becoming wet" had hoped to see more. Maybe because of the weather, tide, or sea state but just an average viewing experience for anyone who has dived or snorkeled any reef.

Gary R

Great trip to see the reef. Crew were brilliant, great fun but also very informative. Highly recommend them. Thanks for a great experience

Ben, Craig and Alex were amazing! Boat was great, had all the comforts you need, drinks, snacks and toilets. Clean facilities. Had a great time. Sunset was beautiful. Will definitely be booking again.

It was a ho-hum experience, can't really see the fish and taking pictures through the glass bottom results in pictures with a lot of reflection in them. The turtle siting is just that, if a turtle happens to pop up for air and you happen to be looking in that direction, you might get a glimpse.

Couldn't see hardly anything. Just greyish coral. Not at all what I was expecting. Could see a few greyish fish every now and then, but I was expecting to see a coral reef with colorful fish.

We were picked up at our campsite and taken to the boat. The trip was brilliant, we saw the reef and fish close up through the glass. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. After the trip we we taken back to our site. It was a lovely way to spend a morning.

It is a right rip-off. Nothing can be seen. I mean it is absolutely NOTHING! Do not waste your money. I cannot give anything positive about this trip, not even the two guys from the company when they were cheeky enough to sell other tours and this one was already bad enough to pursue a refund. Stay away!
