Magical day in a perfect location - What a day, picked up from our accommodation, check in easy and well planned, weather wasn’t the best so was abit choppy but Ben made the best of it and went round the weather. All the staff helpful, chatty and super friendly. Lunch was perfect, just what was needed and very well served and organised. Felt extremely safe with the precautions they take, headcount each time we all went off and on the boat. Would definitely do it again.

Great day out. - Really amazing day. Lots of fun, boat is very splashy depending on where you're sitting but all good fun! The beach was incredible, saw loads of stingray's Transfers back at the end is just pot luck ours was going to be about an hour so we just got a cab. But otherwise was a fantastic day and would definitely recommend Libby, lazlo and captain Dave were great! Even saw a huge turtle which was magical.

Best day ever - Loved this trip with Reece Jodie and Shannon. They made the day extra special with their super energy and fun. They were so diligent with the safety of all passengers in and out of the water. Can not recommend them enough.

An incredible day! - An absolutely brilliant day! We’ll organised even though there were 2 boat loads of people. Everyone got personal attention when it came to stinger suits and bouncy jackets for those that needed them. Being a non swimmer and certainly never snorkelled before I was supported all the way. Although we only did one snorkel spot we stayed longer and we’re really able to enjoy all the fantastic fish that were there. Lunch was great. The visit to the island and the view of Betty’s Beach from the look out incredible. Such a great day. Crew were fantastic.
