We had a 1/2 day trip to a fringe reef snorkeling. Our crew were Nick, Dan and Amanda and they made our trip so much fun. Right from the start with our safety lecture. I have never heard a safety lecture put in such a way before we were all laughing and couldnt wait to get started. These 3 lively... More

Supposed to go to an underwater viewing capsule but that was flooded.Fed some fish, (food provided) then went on the glass bottom... More

I booked a full day diving tour with them. We were planning to dive in Bait Reef but they changed the dive site to Hayman Island because of the weather which turned out to be great. I could see lots of beautiful fishes, corals, nudi, etc. The dive guide was very friendly, attentive and she even taught me how to... More

My family of 4 adults did a full day snorkel on the Great Barrier Reef. From Hamilton Island harbour, we travelled aboard a motorized boat for two hours to reach the first reef, and following lunch, anchored in a second site. There was a terrific guide who accompanied our group of 20 ish and pointed out reefs, fish, and other... More

Booked a 1/2day tour to wonderful Whitehaven Beach. Although the tour is supposed to be allover 3.5 hours it took them coz of weather conditions longer to get there and for the way back ... with a stop-over time of 15 minutes at the beach. This is a joke ... people are going there to enjoy the beach and not... More

We went on a full day diving tour to the Bait Reef for 315AUD per person. What we expected was a great dive site at the world known great barrier reef and an excellent boat and equipment. What we got was one very horrible dive with only dead corals, no fish and no visibility, and one second dive with a... More

As a group we joined the Triple Treat Tour - which goes to Whitehaven beach, Hill Inlet and snorkelling/diving. The tour costs $175, which would be fine if the tour was any good at all. Unfortunately the tour is a joke. The boat is old and uncomfortable, the toilets are unpleasant, the tea and coffee facilities are dirty, as are... More

So I went on my own to do two dive on Bait Reef. They asked me to arrive at 9am and we didn't leave till about 10am which was fine as I understand that some people are late. they provided me with a prescription mask for free which was great. The journey took about 2 hours to Bait Reef, pretty... More
