Fantastic cruise to see the reef close up! - This cruise was fantastic! A huge boat with both indoor and outdoor seating areas. The ocean was super wavy when we went, but the staff was very helpful and informed us beforehand so we could take anti-nausea medication. They also passed out bags for those who were feeling ill. Once at the pontoon, there was a lot to do - from snorkeling, to the underwater aquarium, to sunbathing on the deck, and my personal favorite, going in a helicopter over the reef!

Great Barrier Reef’s Great! A Must Do! - An excellent experience! Especially the snorkeling. We saw fish of different sizes and colors, coral reefs and underwater features. There are also the glass bottom and submersible boat ride to get a glimpse of the underwater world if you don’t want to get wet.

A special three generation family holiday. - We had an amazing trip. The staff were outstanding, the food was delicious, considering we were out in the middle of the ocean. The Reef itself did not disappoint.

Totally worth it! - Snorkeling was amazing. Very well facilitated. 6 year old loved it. She also really enjoyed the water slide. The lunch buffet was delicious as well. It was very windy and rainy on our excursion but it had no effect on our snorkeling.

Destructive Experience - My wife and I arrived there at 9:47 am. I got my wife to give the desk a call to let them know that we are in the car park. But they said that the boat had already left. We tried to tell them that it's not even 10:00 am but they reckon we were too late to check in. Would not even try to give us either a refund or another day to make up for it. It goes to show that you do not care about your customers at all. If we had arrived way past the departure time I'd say fair enough but we were there before hand. I have the time of the call on my phone that we were there before 10:00 am.
