Green Island Sea Walk - Was excellent, well looked after from the crew. Seen lots of fish big and small around the coral. Could not use my under water camera ,had to buy the professional photos. We did not mind this $80 each, this gives all photos and video on USB. Highly recommend.

Very cool experience - This was a very cool experience. The staff were very helpful, friendly and professional. They took your photo under water too. My only complaint (and this is just nature) is that it was hard to see things under water. Like there was a turtle 3-4 feet away from me that the guide pointed out but I couldn’t see it - it just wasn’t very clear down there (about 25 feet down). Again, this is not anyone’s fault, but something I wish I knew beforehand so I could adjust my expectations.

Outstanding experience - Outstanding experience with this tour group. They took great care of me and I was their only customer! Five people provided my service which is a lot for one person. I had a wonderful time and it was easy which was great for someone who does not snorkel or scuba. I had a great adventure on the Reef!

Outstanding Experience - Outstanding! I was the only person who booked Seawalkers that day and they never hesitated to give me the tour. Five people including 2 divers and the underwater photographer suited up and made my adventure happen. I had a great time and loved the chance to experience the reef and being underwater. This was perfect for someone who does not snorkel or scuba. Everyone at Great Adventures made me feel welcome & appreciated and cared that I had a great experience. I highly recommend Seawalkers Experience.

Unforgettable experience! - This was an amazing way to see the special fish and corals of the reef. Felt almost like a 'moon walk', but with much more colourful surroundings. The diving helmet takes a little getting used to, but the staff were incredibly helpful. They explained every step of the sea walk. I felt safe and enjoyed every moment. A once in a lifetime experience!

Reconsider. Outstanding staff! - Although we did see marine life and enjoyed this turned out to be a photo taking session under water just to sell you pics. I am opposed to feeding the marine life for tourist financial gain. I’d reconsider, it’s not even about the $. The staff was very professional and friendly.

Tourist trap - I booked this because I have very bad eyesight and am depending on glasses, so scuba-diving was out of the question and snorkeling may have been dissatisfying. Granted, with this you did have a good view and you do get to see some creatures, but that's like 5 minutes of the very limited time you get. The other 15 minutes you are caught in a modelling job, posing for phoney fotos and videos which they later have the cheek to try to sell you for $100(!). I spontaneously decided to rather keep my money and invest that sum into beer somewhen later. Besides, I had the impression all we actually did see was a commercially organized underwater zoo. Not worth the money in my opinion. The whole of Green Island seems to be a tourist trap: Get imprisoned on its 500 m², take a seawalk and a 30 minute glassbottom boat tour, walk the whole accessible area of the island in 30 minutes, find yourself bored... So either spend more bucks for additional activities, risk marine stingers bathing in the sun or get bitten to death by mosquitos in the shade... Use a 5 m² swimming pool instead? Get drunk at the cheesy bar? Or write an honest TripAdvisor review to pass the time till return... My sentiments: "Great Adventures" are something else entirely...

Pathetic….NO NO NO … don’t get into this trap. - Out of 1hr duration of experience promised they only give you hardly less than 5 min at sea level, and that too so they make you pose for pics and videos. This is so they trap you into exorbitantly priced pictures and videos you are bullied to buy ( they don’t let you take your personal GoPro….in the name of “safety”). You don’t even get few moments to enjoy yourself and are not allowed to soak in nature under/in sea. I did snorkel on the same shores after this stupid choice, and I must say it was multi million time rewarding…. Donate your money then waste your time on this crap. Great idea but pathetic execution, they want to rip you when they should focus on execution and giving you fulfilling experience….the manager on site is a retired minded person and should be replaced to bring life into it!

Medical check should be done early - Found out on the boat over to green island that due to medication we were unable to do seawalk. Medical check should be done prior to the trip. We were disappointed and it ruined our day
