Snorkel tour with Adrenalin! - Amazing snorkel tour of the reef! I saw hundreds of fish and was surrounded by coral, and I have the beautiful photos to prove it! I wld recommend a snorkel tour with Cassey as ur guide, esp if ur going solo. She is a wealth of knowledge and spotted lots of things I wld have missed, such as the humungous Triton snail eating a purple starfish. All the work Cassey and Adrenalin does towards conservation was an eye opener. I did not know that people count the fish and coral in the sea. And it’s not easy! MOUA - the museum of underwater art - was visible as a snorkeler. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to see it, but the sentinels and trees were clearly visible. It was really eerie looking down on the statues. Almost like looking on a lost Atlantis. All up a top trip and the catering catered to Coeliacs including being careful of cross contamination in the buffet. Thx Matilde! Would thoroughly recommend!

Great dive (even for baby divers) - Boat ride was great and crew kept us entertained. Once we got to the site we were in quickly and had an amazing dive saw some cool stuff. Had a few gear issues that I should have noted in gear check as they got annoying later on but crew were supportive. Lunch was simple but good surface interval flew by. Second dive was even better so much aquatic life. Overall highly recommend even for new divers

Great Barrier Reef Diving - Great dive site. Operator was very safety conscious. Dive personnel was friendly, helpful and competent.

Fab Family GBR Outing - Great family trip with teenagers to explore and experience the Great Barrier Reef. Great boat and crew who made it a great experience. Expect a long (2.5 hr) ride out to the Reef from Townsville. We saw lots of marine life and cool underwater statues. Would do this trip again!

Adrenaline Rush - We had a great time the weather was amazing, the team was great, accommodated us very well. We went snorkelling and also had the opportunity to go scuba diving which was an exciting chance to see up close the underwater museum, luckily for us the water was clear as well. Definitely coming back with family and friends !!!

Great staff - Great staff, wonderful site for a dive, there were a very high fish population everywhere around the museum and reef

Good - This excursion was different than the one we took out of Cairns. The boat was small and the staff seemed to focus quite a bit more on guests who were scuba diving than those who were snorkeling. The lunch "buffet" was basically some bread, cold cuts, cheese and a jar of peanut butter (and some condiments) set out on the small table. Only drink provided was water from a thermos cooler. Snacks were great!! Cookies and fruit passed around in a bowl. "Captain" was knowledgeable about the Reef and made a good talk during lunch. Very limited seating on top deck, except for floor. Seeing a few of the Underwater Art exhibits was interesting.

Snorkeling Day - We had a wonderful Day with a very dedicated Crew ! A great experience at a wonderful place to see lots of Fishes .

WORST DIVING EXPERIENCE AFTER 145 DIVES AROUND THE WORLD, VER Y UNPROFESSIONAL CREW AND EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE - WORST DIVING EXPERIENCE AFTER 145 DIVES AROUND THE WORLD, VER Y UNPROFESSIONAL CREW AND EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE Activity: Adrenalin - Great Barrier Reef and MOUA Day Trip - Certified Diver Price: Extremely expensive, $459 + $10 (booking fee) for 2 dives at the same place, with NO guide (if you want a guide you have to pay extra $20/dive). Dive site: Nothing special. It’s the GBR, you expect something special! But we’re in a small reef where corals are so so and the only big marine life we see is humphead wrasse and whitetip reef shark (not even a moray, a stingray, a sea turtle… very common animals in reef areas). And the “museum”, Museum Of Underwater Art (MOUA), what a shame!! Equipment: Old, and wet suits for snorkel are too thin. Snorkel activity: I was diving but my friend was snorkeling, she has no experience (she told that to the person in charge) but she was told to go with her buddy (a 17 y.o. girl that had no experience as well, and who she had just met 10 minutes before). Diving activity: When we arrive at the meeting point to depart with the boat, Matilda (PADI N520525, the one in charge of the diving… I searched for her in Adrenalin website, but there’s no “our team” section) confirmed my diving certification and told me I was going with no guide because I didn’t book it (the truth is that I didn’t pay attention to the extras when booking, assuming that when you dive with a diving center a guide goes with you in a group of 4-8 divers; at least that’s how I have dived in Maldives, Red Sea, Seychelles, Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica, Italy, Spain…, and the guide is included in the price of the dive). As I don’t want to pay any extra (it would be $509 for 2 dives), and Matilda tells me it’s an easy dive site and there’s another experienced diver who didn’t book the guide (so we can be buddies), I accept to dive unguided with the experienced buddy. First dive: The experienced diver results to be a 72 y.o. lady, overweighted, with mobility problems (2 knee surgeries with prosthesis and ankle problems). After helping her with the equipment, we start the first dive. We need 3 times because she needs more weights in her BCD, no one from Adrenalin helps her, I have to do it. Finally we start the dive 20 minutes after the rest of the divers (I was about to say “group” but it was not a group). After 15 minutes diving the reef, the experienced diver tells me to turn back, and 10 minutes later (dive time is 25 minutes) she tells me she has 60bar left (I had 130bar left), so I tell her to slowly go up and do the safety stop at 5m deep, even if we are not close to the boat. She goes straight up with no safety stop. I keep calm and do my safety stop for 3 minutes, keeping an eye on her all the time. When I reach the surface, one member of the crew has arrived with a small boat to pick her up, and asks me if I can manage to swim to the boat (about 70-80m against mild-hard currents). I arrived exhausted! Lunch time: The “menu” is bread, salad, humus, 4 slices of cheese and 4 slices of ham/salami… ridiculous!!! During the lunch, Matilda asked me how the dive was, so I explained her my bad experience, that I didn’t enjoy the dive at all, that I had to finish my dive with 120bar because of my “experienced” buddy… I was really pissed off because it was not safe, I couldn’t enjoy the dive and I had to take care of my buddy. Matilda seemed to be sad for me and offered me to join her on the second dive. Second dive: We didn’t see much, but at least it lasted 47 minutes and was safe. Surprise: Once onboard, after the second dive, Matilda asks me for $20 for the guided dive. Really? After what happened on the first one? And without telling me anything about paying $20 when she offered me to join her for the second dive? Better to avoid this diving center and this dive site too.

Terrible costumer service, wrong information and they charg in USD not AUD! - First of all the agency did not have the information if this trip included a scuba dive for non-experience dives. They took more than one day to get back to me and gave me the wrong information. They said yes, I could go (I did only a couple of dives, never done a course). But when I got there, the operator crew said they were not informed there would be a non-experienced diver and they had to staff to accompany me. Also, the company I called was based in Sydney, the trip was in Queensland, but they charged me in American Dollars. The price doesn't let it clear, it only says "$". Definitely, I do not recommend it! It was the worst part of my trip to Townsville/Magnetic Island.
