The best way to snorkel Maggie Island. - This is the second time we have been on the snorkelling and fishing tour with Drew and loved both times. Its one of the best ways to experience Maggie Island bays and Drew is a great host and always provides great commentary and a good laugh. He provides everything you will need for a great day out on the water. We will definitely be back again.

Who wouldn't want to snorkel, paddleboard, explore and fish in one of the most beautiful spots in the world! - If you're tossing up whether to do this tour - I would 100% recommend, not only do you get to see so many different spots and sights (some which can only be accessed by boat!) but Drew was so passionate and made this tour so much fun, informative, full of laughs and good music! Because you're in a smaller group, it didn't feel rushed trying to get everyone to all the different spots / activities, and we were able to do so much in the four hours!

On a trip with a passionate local - This trip is run by an owner/operator local, Drew. He caters for those who love fishing, for snorkelers with top quality gear or for those who just want to soak up the sun on a secluded beach. Very engaging commentary all the way, Drew knows the history of the island, loves his home, there is no question that goes unanswered. He will explain the rock formation, where the names come from, points out wildlife, he even gives tips and advice on where to go shopping, how to get to the shipwreck, best bakery and fish and chips shop. Only 6 people on board, this way everyone gets a personalized experience, you won't get a better guide!

Choose this cruise!! - Fantastic cruise, highly recommended for young and old. Loads of variety - fishing, snorkelling, swimming, paddle boarding, etc - and a great way to see more of Mahnetic Island. Being a smaller boat was a positive. Excellent tour guide!

Island Time Magic - A great day out on the water! Drew’s small boat with only 8 people was a great way to get to beautiful little bays around the island. The fishing was fun and half of us caught fish (all too small to keep so they were released). The snorkelling was also fun and we saw turtles as well as very large fish. We were able to take lots of lovely photos from the boat. Just fantastic. Drew was good with his little bits of info about the island. Thanks for the restaurant advice we had a delicious lunch and the lookout was amazing.

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE AND TOUR!! - Incredible experience!! The most beautiful views of maggie island! Our guide, Drew, was awesome! Very knowledgeable about the island, its history, and the sea life! The best way to see the island as we sailed to different bays and even had one to ourselves. Enjoyed having a small group because we connected easily and made new friends. Overall, the perfect excursion for family, friends, partners, or solo! The ferry from townsville arrives in Nelly Bay and it’s super easy to catch the bus to Horseshoe bay and back.
