Amazing crew, amazing boat, amazing food!

The crew were all great which really elevated the experience on the day. It wasn't just about swimming in the reef, the crew made the 2 hour trip there and back exciting and engaging as well. The food was great, and they were really accommodating offering guided tours round the reef with crewmbers for anyone who isn't strong swimmer. They even had prescription goggles for those who wear glasses like myself, which made the experience even better! Would highly recommend this crew to anyone who wants to get out on the reef and have an amazing time!

You could not ask for any better for you reef snorkelling/diving adventure

The staff are all amazingly friendly and they genuinely care to ensure you have a great day out and get to really enjoy experiencing the reef for yourself. We could tell the crew were not just ‘working a job’ but rather living out their mission of sharing the beauty of the Great Barrier Reef with people. We have two young daughters and the crew went out of their way to ensure they got to experience the reef as well - the helped them into their wetsuit, fitted their goggles, fitted floaties around their waste and then pulled them both behind them on a rope and buoy over the reef so they could experience snorkelling and seeing the reef without getting too tired. The food was also fantastic. When you first set off, you are treated to tea/coffee and fresh fruit. Lunch is a delicious assortment of healthy cuisine - lamb or vegetable curry, rice with vegetables, salad, potato salad, pasta salad etc, and then afternoon tea is chocolate delights with tea/coffee again.

Snorkeling and crew at the cruise was great but need to improve the breakfast and lunch menu.
Tandin_Y
, Dec 2021
Everything was great, except the food. Who serves fresh fruits with tea/coffee? When we booked it was written muffin and sandwich but we got fruits. Moreover, in the evening there was shortage of cakes and we didn’t get it. Lunch wasn’t good as well. It wasn’t as expected, it would have been great if there had been at least 2 non veg curries.
