The best part for me was the the glass bottom boat tour then the snorkel. Our guide Alek was not only very entertaining but very informative and professional. He made everyone feel... More

Over the years there's... More

My husband and I took your 10.30 am trip on Sunday, 13 May. Right from our first point of contact by telephone through to the end of the trip we were impressed with the friendly but professional level of service provided. Alek and his assistant Mark were happy to share their knowledge of the area and willingly answered questions. They... More

This was one of the best tours we've been on and we've been on a few!! From initial contact with Gina, we were thoroughly impressed. Our booking was made at the very last minute and we were welcomed from the outset. Courtesy transport and in depth commentary by Kim was informative and thorough. Safety briefing and then on the boat... More

“Awesome fun! The family had such a great time on the glass bottom boat and also had the opportunity to snorkel which was an amazing experience. The 2.5hr tour is a great option to see and learn bits of local info from the guide along the way and the skipper was a wealth of knowledge with sea life..... Initially I... More

Thoroughly enjoyed this cruise! Alek was very informative and had a great sense of humour. We were lucky enough to see a Bull Ray and also the local Estuary Cod, as well as doing some great snorkelling. We took our own snorkelling gear, however it was great that the crew also supplied snorkelling gear free of charge if needed. Highly... More

My daughter, Mollie and I took this trip on Tuesday 20th March. We were picked up from our resort by a cheerful guide (Mollie says thanks for the biscuit!) and escorted to the boat where we met Alek. He is the friendliest chap and certainly knows his stuff. My daughter can swim but the sea was somewhat choppy so I... More
