An absolute must do! - The absolute best crew, full of knowledge and fun! Hayley, Elenor and Lincoln made our trip unforgettable! Hayley has the most knowledge I’ve ever seen and her passion for the animals and reef makes the trip so lively! I greatly appreciate that they’re a family run business with an emphasis on reef preservation and care. There’s no better company to book with

It’s how you handle the situation that matters! - We unfortunately arrived in the morning to hear that the weather was too windy to go out in the small group boat we had booked. The team was super apologetic about the situation and immediately arranged to refund our money. Additionally, they had made arrangements with another tour company with a large Catamaran to take us and honour the price we paid with Reed Adventures. They also escorted us to the ticket window of the new company and waited to ensure everyone who they had to cancel was looked after.
It was a bad situation that they went above and beyond to make right. I could not ask for any more what a stand up group. My only regret was not being able to tour the reef with them because, based on their cancellation service, I could only imagine the tour would have been phenomenal.
Thanks again for your efforts given the unexpected weather.

Small group, family feel, and fun - We snorkeled two sites in the outer reef, which were spectacular. It was a small group (25 people max) which was great. Our guides and skippers (the owner and his daughter) were so friendly and helpful and constantly checking if everyone was happy. They were genuinely concerned that everyone enjoyed their day. They provided snacks (fresh fruit and lamingtons) and a lunch and they took care of dietary needs (I requested no red meat). They took music requests on the way back to Cairns. If I’m ever back in Cairns, I would book this exact tour again. I really liked how it wasn’t crowded and the staff paid so much attention to their guests. Highly recommend!!!

Awesome morning on the reef - Tour was amazing. Conditions were very choppy but our amazing guides (Hayley, Joelle and skippers Diego and Maddy) gave us a fantastic experience despite the conditions. They all knew their stuff and were so helpful throughout the morning. We got to see some of the corals and fish of the reef and also spotted some dolphins on the way out.
Couldn’t recommend Reef Adventures enough

Do it - Amazing experience. 100% worth it. Highly recommend the full day experience as you get an opportunity to check two different sites. By the second immersion you are more familiar with the environment and gear and can deeply enjoy the breathtaking underwater views. Great crew, always prioritising people’s safety and wellbeing. The smaller fast boat makes the experience feel more adventurous than the massive boats you’ll see around.

I have a broken shoulder. I showed up and showed it to them but they charged me(?) That is totally unethical- call them! - They charged me for not taking me. I have a broken shoulder. Call them and get my money
