Stunning Afternoon Snorkelling Experience – Amazing Crew & Unforgettable Memories! - My husband Paul and I had an absolutely incredible afternoon snorkelling over the Great Barrier Reef, a truly unforgettable experience! The reef itself was stunning, with vibrant coral, crystal-clear waters, and an amazing variety of marine life. It felt like we were swimming in a real-life aquarium. What really made the trip special was the wonderful crew, Hayley, Lincoln, and Tayla. From the moment we boarded, they were warm, professional, and full of energy. I unfortunately experienced a bit of motion sickness during the journey, but the way they looked after me was beyond kind. Hayley was so attentive and reassuring, Lincoln brought a smile to my face with his calm and friendly manner and play list of top hits, and Tayla kept checking in to make sure I was doing okay. They truly went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and cared for. Thanks to their support, I was able to enjoy the water and share the full experience with Paul, who was absolutely blown away by the reef. We both left feeling grateful, refreshed, and full of awe. If you’re thinking about exploring the Great Barrier Reef, I couldn’t recommend this team highly enough. The afternoon was perfect, the crew were fantastic, and it’s an experience we’ll both treasure forever.

Had an amazing time! - This was an amazing experience and the crew, Renee, Taylor and Lincoln were super fun and helpful. I’d definitely recommend this experience for anybody in Cairns. The crew taking photos and making them available for free shortly after returning is a really great aspect.
