5.00Team was wonderful. Although I think most of the ~20 visitors on the boat got seasick on the ride there, the crew was very prepared. They provided breakfast and lunch and had medicine for sea sickness. There was sunscreen provided everywhere on the boat. Hot showers were very nice after we finished diving around 1:30pm. When it came to diving instruction, the team was very knowledgeable and walked me, a first time diver, through step-by-step until I felt comfortable. Photos taken by an underwater photographer were available for purchase afterwards. The experience itself was unlike anything I’ve ever done before and so amazing. Definitely worth the money!
Don’t fall for cheap price

1.00Divers den has to be worst. 2 boats with total of 100 divers all going down one rope to one piece of corral. Was obvious almost all staff were in training and knew very little about diving. Pay the extra money and go with professional company
Safety and environmental ethics concerns. Consider supporting locally owned businesses instead.

2.00I have been on several snorkeling tours in the area with different operators, and this was unfortunately the worst experience. While we did see a sea turtle, the operation itself was disappointing and, in some cases, concerning. The boat wasn't too crowded which was nice. The GetYourGuide listing advertised 5 hours of in-water time, but we were only given 3. This felt like a "bait and switch" regarding the value of the tour. We were taken to a reef (Norman) with a heavy Blue Bottle jellyfish population (which I completely understand is just nature and out of their control) yet the stinger suits provided had holes in them. When I raised dismay of multiple stings to my face, staff were dismissive and invalidating. Providing damaged protective gear in known stinger conditions is a borderline lapse in Queensland duty of care laws. It is disheartening to see a reef operator provide non-reef-safe sunscreen. Furthermore, the guides shared incorrect identification features for wildlife and reinforced harmful shark stigmas rather than educating guests on marine conservation. The snorkeling area was tiny and heavily micromanaged, and the "bbq lunch" was served cold. For those looking for a professional, locally-owned experience that actually respects the reef, I highly recommend Passions of Paradise or Pure Snorkeling. Both have much friendlier, more knowledgeable staff and gear that is actually in good repair.
Watch the reef explode with life, right before your eyes.

5.00Professional from top to bottom and start to finish. Every detail taken care of. Staff was both cordial and focused on safety the whole time. The underwater photographer was amazing! He deserves five stars on his own. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting an authentic snorkel trip to the reef.
Poor preparation, training was on the boat with such speed and enormous noise that should have been performed pre-boardi

4.00Fabulous day on the reef. We snorkeled at two locations. All kit provided, as well as lunch. Great guides pointed out clown fish and turtles. We felt very safe and lots of time was given for exploring.
