Epic day! Saw turtles, sharks and too many fish to count. Kolton was an awesome guide - gave 110% to help and his enthusiasm was infectious. Lunch on a secluded beach without footprints was icing on the cake. And don't be put off by the kayaking required - we both managed as novices (and despite age and creaking joints 😂)

An amazing day out, the location was beautiful with such an amazing range of fish and marine life. The turtles were a highlight.
Our guide Rosie was fantastic, and happy to adjust the day to suit our experience level and viewing hopes.
Lunch was simple and healthy, a great compliment to the day.

The whole day was incredible! We were swimming with reef sharks, turtle spotting, and saw some sting rays! Our guide was so lovely and knowledgeable, she really helped the day go so well. We had a small group of 4 so the experience was so personal. Lunch was tasty and it was so useful that we could borrow rashies and hats in addition to the snorkel gear because we were out in the sun all day.

This tour is perfect for inexperienced snorkelers, and a great first taste of the reef. Elijah was a great guide who knew his stuff and loves his job. The tour is also good value for money, with food included.

I had the best tour with Neri. Neri’s knowledge and professionalism were fantastic. She made the whole day a really special experience - I saw so many beautiful fish, turtles , octopus , reef sharks - even a dingo. Neri was friendly and her love and enthusiasm for the area really shone through. I couldn’t recommend this tour highly enough.
Response from Host, Sep 2019
Thank you for taking the time to write a review! Yep we really did have a great day, from pick up to drop off the wildlife really turned it on for us! We're so lucky to live and work in such an amazing environment, and to also be able to share it with people like yourself. Really appreciate the recommendation, and so glad that you enjoyed your experience with us.
