Great day trip to the Great barrier reef for our fun dives. The company is locally owned and the crew is amazing. The groups were small, we got lunch and even an "eco talk" were we learnt a lot about the eco system and the fish and other organisms that live in the sea. They had a bar with beer, soft drinks, chips and sea sick tablets. You could buy pictures from them (that they took of you while diving) and you could also rent a camera for diving! We had such a great time! Would totally recommend!

Great crew made for a beautiful day on the reef. It was great to see so much healthy coral. Nice lunch, and an informative presentation on the reef on the trip back to harbor.

An amazing day ticking off a bucket list activity! I’m not the most confident swimmer so have never really enjoyed snorkelling before but the option to have a guide for less confident swimmers was invaluable, I was able to have a float and hold on to a ring the whole time which meant I was safe, calm and managed to really see the reef in such an amazing way - the best snorkelling experience I’ve ever had for sure. All the crew on board were so lovely and the lunch buffet was delicious and snacks offered all day was appreciated. Highly recommend!!
