Awesome day on the reef. - Magnificent day on the reef snorkelling and experiencing the Great Barrier Reef with friends. The team were professional experienced and knowledgeable plus they would do everything to ensure we enjoyed the whole day. Was a small group and better than previous experience on larger vessels. The equipment was in great condition and we were given clear instructions before getting in the water. The lunch was really good and plentiful. Overall a great experience

Skip the pontoon .. great way to get the family snorkelling - Family group of 10 with young kids. Great friendly snorkelling experience.. well organised with casual swim.. didn't feel pressured to get through. Variety of fish and coral better than pontoon

Great experience! - The snorkel day was amazing! The staff were so friendly and helpful and made the entire day such a great time. The staff were especially great with kids of all ages helping entertain, support and educate them. Couldn’t speak more highly of the day and all of the staff onboard! Very worthwhile day! Highly recommended.

Half day snorkel with Explore - I did the half day snorkel with Explore and had the most amazing time. The team was so supportive with any needs or requirements and the location was perfect, if I could rate the day higher than 5 stars I definitely would. I went solo and was very anxious upon boarding and the team made me feel so comfortable and checked in multiple times throughout the day which is so very appreciated :) I 1000% recommend explore group if you are up for a great time snorkelling, I know I will be back.

Open water course, a 10/10 experience - I did my open water course the past weekend and I couldn't be happier with the experience! 10/10 The weather was incredibly kind to us and with Max leading the course, we had an outstanding experience 🤙 Danilo took us to stepping stones the first day which was incredible, and to cathedral the second day (both at bait reef) as the weather allowed us. Thanks to Georgia, the other diver instructor who went checking the conditions on the tender the last day to make it happen 👌 Before that, Mark was on the tender, helping us with a few excercises giving it so much diversity to the learning process. Peyton looked after us very well while on the boat, with the other 2 girls that I wish I remember their names because all of them were very welcoming at all times making sure we were having a good time. Also on the boat the good vibes are all over the place. Dylan,l and Georgia, the other instructors are at all times looking after the other divers making sure the experience is good for all the diver. To sum up, thank you team for going an extra mile in everypart of my first full on experience underwater🙏All of you definitely show that, team work, makes the dream work 🏅 And thank you Max, for being an excellent instructor, giving us reinsurance, support and making sure we were comfortable on the water at all times. Teaching how to look after each other and the beautiful underwater world 💙 I enjoyed every minute of it and can't wait to be back there 🤿🤙

Amazing trip - The crew were all very happy and welcoming. They were very hard working and heartwarming like Peyton. The snorkelling was excellent and everything was enjoyable.

Go on a smaller trip - The reef is great but the snorkeling is not so good as there are beginners and competent people in the same large group. It should be split into confident swimmers and others as there is a lot of waiting around in the water when you could be exploring. Not well organised.
