Brilliant day on the reef! - Great trip! Well organised, friendly helpful staff and lots to see and do at your own pace. The pontoon was brilliant, clean spacious and lots to take part in including the glass bottom boat, the slide, the semi sub and then of course swimming in the reef. All of the crew were knowledgeable and Ezzy in particular was great, and helped us feel at ease after some nerves about swimming in the reef. The lunch on Fitzroy island was lovely, only issue was long queues, food running out and not enough seating… some of our party had to eat their food on their laps and some shared a table with other couples. The island was beautiful, there was a nice walk to Nudey beach, beautiful views and plenty to see in the sea. Overall we had a great day and are so pleased who chose this trip as our first experience to the Great Barrier Reef! Would also like to mention Alex, who was great! Friendly, helpful and a credit to your team :) Thank you to everyone onboard who made the trip a great one :)

The BEST day on the Reef possible! - We did the Moore Reef and Fitzroy Island tour, absolutely the best in Cairns for the boat, staff, amenities and experience. We did the guided snorkel tour as an extra and it was brilliant…highly recommend and will definitely do this again!

Snorkeling - Abi the snorkeling instructor was great, both of us had a great time snorkeling. My partner is always scared of sea, but she did it, all the credit goes to Abi.

Great family day out - Full day Moore reef tour. The pontoon just makes for a relaxing day with plenty of room to move around, sit and chill or do all the other free activities on offer like snorkelling , glass bottom boat, under water observatory, water side into the ocean, fish feeding and the live touch tanks. Great place for little kids with the metal cage for them to swim in, so allowing a the fish to come through. Plenty of stinker suits it fit all shapes and sizes even the cuddliest of us 😍. I would definately recommend this. Lunch was simple but tasty with fresh prawns on offer. Lunch was served for 2hrs so still plenty of time for activities and eating when you're ready.

Great Barrier Reef - Overall a well managed and professional cruise and knowledgeable trip to the Great Barrier Reef. Plenty of time (4hours) to enjoy the reef and snorkel or scuba or helicopter or ocean walk. Entirely up to you how active and involved you want to be. Crew are very friendly and always there to help you have an enjoyable day.
