“Everything worked perfectly and it is one of the few local companies with all the many providers. On board the ship, the seller track is driven first and they want to sell an additional offer, but afterwards you really have time to look at the reef. It is also great that the different (paid) options such as diving etc. spread the people well. Then we added the snorkeling safari, which really paid off. Unfortunately, I was bad most of the time, because of the swell - I recommend people who easily get nausea to take decent tablets with them, unfortunately there were only ginger tablets on board, which almost didn't work for me. it WAS FUN.”

“The boat takes you to the platform on the rocks of the day where you can go snorkeling, scuba diving, semi sub or a canoe. You can also buy extras like a guided snorkel trip or take a helicopter but you don‚Äôt have to fill your day. I booked a snorkel tour guided by Justin, a highly trained and fun marine biologist, who wandered around for a while on the water and then went to the semi sub to see more details. Then I listened to more details on the return trip from another marine expert. They had enough equipment for a shooting boat but I was happy to bring my towel and change of clothes without a swimsuit.”

“It was a good trip to the outer pole. We have selected Scuba on the site and do not regret it. Lots of fish and corals have been spotted. The food was also good. After 5 hours on the river we went back. You can also purchase experience photos. All in all, a great compliment. Many staff members also spoke excellent German.”

“We've added a garden tour for the small group you gave us (grandma and granddaughter)! Confidence in snorkel and explore further on our time at the river. We always felt safe and well cared for. Necessary precautionary measures have been taken. Thank you Paul especially. And the crispy, salty and curry lunch, was better than expected. I also suggest that I take some seaweed before proceeding as the journey is difficult and my grandson is very sick. I highly recommend this trip. Do it.”

“.By the end of June, global temperatures were mild in Cairns, but slightly cooler at sea. There is also a trade wind of at least 10 knots in the south during the winter months which strikes you once you pass through the protected area of the port of Cairns. We found a 1.5-meter swelling wrap around the catamaran and I didn‚Äôt treat that well and I ended up losing my morning and afternoon break as it did with my fellow passengers. I was right on their platform tied to a rock. If you are in the winter, I recommend a dose of Dramamine or the same just before boarding”

“Staff recommended that we take movement pills, which we did. I eventually got sick. However, the staff took good care of me. When we arrived at the floating docks, we had a wonderful time. We really enjoyed SNUBA and the Garden Tour. Our helicopter has been canceled due to weather conditions but we are happy to withstand sailing instead.”
