The experience was very good as I got to adventure into the whit Sundays and the Great Barrier Reef snorkelling locations. I also got to have the fun of swimming in the crystal clear waters of white haven beach. The crew was very energetic and nice with Rosie and Peyton giving us information and having smarts as when the tide was low we managed to get on the boat before it marooned us letting us be about 10-15 minutes ahead of the other 2 groups. The boat was small and fast and the food (included) was very nice for such a small boat with a large variety. We got back on time and even saw whales on the way back! The snorkelling was very good as there were to locations, one focussed on coral and the other on fish. In bothe we saw a lot of what we were meant to see so it was very cool and amazing. The only thing wrong is if you die it is not the companies fault (I luckily didn’t die [I wouldn’t go in summer {stingers!}] )

The staff was really nice and kind, ready to answer any question. The chance to snorkel two different times is great and we saw a lot. The Whitehaven Beach is stunning and we had a lot of time there. Definitely recommend it.

Good tour with 2 snorkel spots. I appreciated that the boat stopped and let us enjoy watching whales. Sitting in the inside row was a bit frustrating, I would have liked to see more of the magnificent scenery and less of the heads of my neighbours. We did not go to the South of Whitehaven beach as described, but I was happy we stopped for the whales. Were able to hear them sing even.

Great for snorkelling. Guy driving the boat was nice. Food was not sufficient - tiny square of brownie for morning tea and 3 tiny cuts (melon, orange and pineapple) of fruit on a skewer for afternoon tea. Lunch was okay. We saw whales, dolphins, turtles, rays and lots of fish. Driver stopped boat so we could look at whales and dolphins which was nice. Overall, I would recommend for the snorkelling but bring your own food. Whitehaven was nice but tide was right out. Don’t recommend this tour if you don’t want to snorkel.

Fantastic experience! Snorkeling in two locations, guaranteed to see loads of beautiful Fish & coral.. Hill inlet lookout is spectacular! Plenty of time to spend on the beach. Lovely buffet lunch on the boat. Payton & the crew were fun & kept a close eye on everyone while in the water.. felt very safe. Highly recommend this adventure

The experience was awesome. The boat ride across the "washboard" was drenching and exilerating - we were warned by the captain. The reef colours were disappointing but the fish especially "George" were beautifull. Whithaven beach incredible!!! Plus sting rays and sand sharks made the trip memorable. Staff were very competant and lunch and snacjs were good. Highly recommended.

Great day with great people. The snorkelling spots were picturesque and it was even better under the water. It was my first time to visit the northern end of Whitehaven and it didn't disappoint. Zack and Shazza (Shannon) were good value, as was our bus drive Emily. Would highly recommend.
