A must! - Great time! The weather was gorgeous. The water was beautiful. Loved being able to snorkel to the Reef from the shore. Lunch was a nice addition. Cool drinks from the bar - bonus! Crew on the boat were great - informative of everything we needed to know. Highly recommend!

Excellent customer service - Due to an issue on my end with my booking, as well as changes in the times Sunlover were actually able to do the transfers I contacted them to cancel my booking. They were wonderful, understanding and exceptionally prompt with the processing. I can only imagine that it would have been equally exceptional customer service if we had been able to use them.

Fun on Fitzroy island - Great trip. Be aware that the weather cannot be guaranteed. February is rainy season so you're going to get wet at some point. That said the organisation and the trip itself is worth the effort. There are great hikes on the island and pool plenty of opportunity for swimming and snorkeling.

Great Fitzroy Island day trip - We really enjoyed our time in Fitzroy island We did the hike to the lighthouse and summit and did some swimming at Nudey beach. It was a beautiful place. The only negative was the ferry service emailed us the day before and pushed back the start time by 60 or 90 minutes with no good explanation.

Sunlover boat - The delay in leaving Cairns and also coming back.Yes they apologied for the day.lmagine thinking you will leave at 10AM and end up leaving after 11AM.l left home without having breakfast,thinking l will have my breakfast at Fitzroy. Surely offering customers something to eat will attending the issue will not have made customers notice the time delay.photos where taken when we where boarding, but nothing was said on where to get them.R egular servicing boats is important.
