• Good Overall Experience with a Few Drawbacks

  Overall a good experience; - we went in April and the water was still quite warm making swimming and beach going quite pleasant. - saw a decent variety fish while snorkelling the wrecks, although the coral is not a vibrant in colour compared to northern QLD. Did see dolphins and manatees as well - convenient location for anyone of the northside of Brisbane. I believe this is the only tour operating from Newport. - the bar offered a variety of tropical cocktails which were tasty. The negatives: - felt a bit rushed; you are only snorkelling for about 45 minutes of the 8 hour tour. We were in the middle snorkell group as well which meant we had 45 minutes either side of swim time which didn't feel enough to use productively - To call it an 'eco safari' seemed a bit of stretch to me. Yes, we saw a podcast of dolphins (which by account is not common), but the commentary was hard to hear so missed most information. - the currents were particularly strong the day we went, so many people made unintentional contact with the coral / rusty wrecks which resulted in many cuts requiring first aid - be warned! Worth doing once but would go unguided next time.

• Amazing Snorkeling & Unforgettable day on Moreton Island

  We had an incredible time with Dolphin Wild Island Cruises on Moreton Island. The snorkeling was absolutely amazing — in small groups we navigated through the reef built out of scuttled ships through clear water and saw beautiful coral, an eel and tons of unique fish. We were also able to see green turtles, a dugong and dolphins. The crew - Grace, Lily, Mick, Stan, Jake and Jade were both fun and knowledgeable, and the island itself is stunning. One of the highlights of our Australia trip. Highly recommend!

  The whole day was fantastic. Friendly crew who went out of their way to assist in all matters, extremely knowledgeable about the marine life and environment of Moreton Island, healthy lunch, and a comfortable transfer to and from the island. Highly recommend.

  Our snorkelling trip yesterday went above and beyond our expectations! Grace, Jake and Mick were excellent hosts and great at making cocktails! Having drinks delivered to you on the beach by someone in the tender while you have a mini tournament of cornhole was next level service and we were living our best below deck lives. The snorkelling through the wrecks was spectacular and was so much fun having someone so knowledgeable and experienced guide us through and find cool things to show us. We couldn’t believe the abundance of life that we saw, way more fish than we’ve ever seen on other reef trips. It really was such a wonderful day and would recommend to anyone!! Might even have to go again sometime 😁

  I recently went on the Dolphin Wild Eco Tour with my husband and had a truly marvellous day. It was such a well organised trip that offered the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. ​The wildlife sightings were a major highlight! We saw such a variety of fish and a sea Eagle! We were lucky enough to spot a pod of dolphins that came right up to the boat as well as a massive bait ball of fish! The crew’s knowledge of the local ecosystem was very impressive. The snorkelling trip was a fantastic all round experience, the water was clear whilst snorkelling and the marine life up close was so cool. ​To top it all off, enjoying cocktails on the beach at Moreton Island was perfect! The lunch provided was fresh and delicious, as a vegetarian I felt the crew went out of their way to ensure I was looked after as well. I couldn't have asked for a better day out on the water. Highly recommended!

  

  

  

  

  

• Avoid this operator – Captain’s poor management ruined a family trip

  Moreton Island is a 5-star destination, but this specific tour was a disaster due to the Captain’s complete lack of organization and professionalism. While the crew seemed to be doing their best to follow orders, the leadership at the top made the experience stressful and frustrating. Our issues began with a strange booking discrepancy. We paid for 5 people (3 adults, 2 kids), but only 3 of us snorkeled. When I asked the Captain to use one of my own unused, paid-for slots, he flatly refused, claiming the boat was "fully booked." This is highly concerning—it suggests that had my entire family chosen to snorkel, the Captain would not have had the space or equipment to accommodate a booking he had already accepted. The worst part of the day was being abandoned. After snorkeling at 11:00 AM, the Captain had us dropped on a beach and seemingly forgot about us. We sat there for an hour with no food or water, watching the tender and jet ski ferry other groups around under the Captain’s direction. By 12:45 PM, my children were starving. I finally had to swim back to the boat myself just to get the Captain’s attention. Rather than taking responsibility for the oversight, the Captain was incredibly rude, blaming me for "not being patient" and telling me they were busy. His attitude was unacceptable; when we finally got back to the boat, the crew was already throwing lunch into the trash. If I hadn’t swam out to intervene, the Captain’s poor scheduling would have left my family with nothing to eat. The location is beautiful, but I cannot recommend a tour where the person in charge shows such a blatant disregard for guest safety and basic courtesy.
