A great day on viper! - Myself and my 3 friends are just finished a fantastic day on Viper! We loved every second of it. We saw many fish, we learnt lots from the knowledgeable staff (nico, Hayley and Dave), we saw the beautiful white sand of Whitehaven and we have now got memories that will last a lifetime time! Our peak of the day however was 100% our Skipper, Dave. Who was one of the funniest people I have ever met. The four of us spent the whole day laughing. Thanks for the constant comedy Dave. ❤️

Great trip with great crew - We were a bit unlucky with the weather in March, which was noticeable in the swell! 🥴 The crew was very informative, helpful and humorous. We first headed for the reef, a slightly smaller reef, but saw a lot of corals and smaller fish. Then we went to Whitsunday Island and that was super nice! Again, the crew was great 👍. Thanks to the crew, we definitely recommend it 👍👍👍

Good tour if you want to see the reef as well. - We went to the reef first ( captain’s decision). It takes about an hour to get there and it can be bumpy. Several people felt sick and were moved to the back ( asked to switch seats with others as all seats in use ). The boat itself is quick, but there isn’t much space to put anything, so keep it light ( towel, sunscreen, small bag at most) once at the reef everything was good. The reef is pretty healthy, we saw plenty of different types of fish, but no sharks, rays, or eels unfortunately. There was a pretty good current, but manageable if you are a good swimmer. After the reef, there was another not quite as long ride to Whitehaven Beach. Here we had lunch, which was fine, and then given a nice amount of time on the beach. Afterwards we took a short ride to the Hill Inlet lookout for the really amazing view. After this it was a relatively easy ride back to the start of our trip. If you can, scuba dive the reef, that is better in my opinion. I have and would do that separately. Then, take another trip to Whitehaven if I were to do this again. That being said, if you are short on time this is a good option. I did it for my daughter, who had never been to the Great Barrier Reef before.

Awesome experience - The guides were so knowledgeable and made sure everyone had fun no matter what their experience level was also the food was superior to any tour I’ve been on. Lots of time at the beach and to snorkel the boat ride was amazing. This was my favourite tour we literally saw everything in a day having the fastest boat made such a difference. We went to a few extra spots and saw way more than advertised thanks to the experienced captain. Things I was worried about were the seats on the boat but they were super padded and comfortable.

The perfect day trip to see everything Whitehaven and The Whitsundays has to offer - This trip was possibly my favourite day of my whole time away. The day trip offers the opportunity to see everything you’d like to around the Whitsundays.
Every stop on the trip was the perfect length of time to make sure you could soak up the views but also didn’t feel like you was hanging around too long, or rushing. The snorkelling on the reef felt really safe and well monitored, and I saw an incredible array of fish there. The food provided was great and the time on Whitehaven beach was heavenly.
The view point was the last stop for us and it was incredible. One thing I’d recommend is sitting further back on the boat if you get sea sick as the sea was pretty rocky for half our journey especially when heading to the reef.
I’d absolutely recommend this trip to everyone who is looking for a day trip to see everything the Whitsundays has to offer.

Discoveries of the Whitsundays - Very nice places for snorkeling, too bad we couldn’t go to the coral reef.
The team was friendly.

Beautiful Whitsundays - Crew was wonderful. Whitehaven was spectacular. And view from Hill inlet
Was a Cloudy, rainy day. So did not get out to outer reef
Snorkeling in Whitsundays was terrific.
