Reviews: Great Barrier Reef Snorkeling and Diving Cruise from Cairns
Guest User2024-09-14
Fantastic day with great staff who look after every need. We stopped at two reefs and had a great deal of time at each. I felt very safe and secure throughout, they really look after everyone. Great lunch too with options for everyone. The fish and reef were beyond incredible and I only wish I could have stayed longer in Cairns as I would absolutely repeat this tour!
Reviews: Cairns Green Island Big Cat half-day tour with snorkeling/glass-bottom boat
Guest User2026-01-31
Since we only had a short stay, we decided to take a quick afternoon tour. The boat ride to the island was very rocky due to the rain and rough weather. I got seasick and couldn't move, so I recommend taking motion sickness medicine if you are prone to seasickness. I was impressed to see sea turtles swimming gracefully nearby.

The itinerary description and the actual itinerary differed. The entire trip mentioned meeting at a specific point, but no one contacted us to explain the details, leaving us to explore on our own, which was quite confusing. Fortunately, the scenery was beautiful and fantastic.

Before reporting this group, I was worried about the speedboat seasickness, so I reported my daughter first, and then reported myself. When the helicopter arranged, the pilot found that we were two people, so he took the initiative to help us coordinate the arrangement on a plane, especially grateful. The cruise activity is also very good. I took a seasickness medicine before I traveled. I went up to see that everyone didn’t wear life jackets. The introduction said that no one had fallen into the sea. I was more secure. The rubber powerboat was very fast. I also played some exciting tricks from time to time. It was a surprise. The crew were enthusiastic and unrestrained. I was very responsible when I went to the observation deck, waiting for everyone to return to the boat to eat, very satisfied and thank you!
Reviews: Ocean Rafting Whitsundays 1-hour flight + 1-day tour of the Southern/Northern route
Guest User2025-12-27
The main reason for the trip was to see the scenery, but the helicopter ride was incredibly hot and humid, and we spent an hour in the sun. We also didn't see the legendary heart-shaped reef, which was quite disappointing. The speedboat ride was just a bit windy. The only worthwhile part was the view from the white sand beach viewpoint; climbing up was tiring but incredibly beautiful. A special reminder: the sea conditions here are complex. Two people were swept away by waves while swimming that day, and we later saw them receiving CPR, which was very distressing. Please, please don't blindly go into the water. Enjoy the scenery; your life is the most important thing!
Reviews: Snorkelling or Glass Bottom Boat at Green Island from Cairns
Guest User2026-02-14
Beautiful island, if you don’t snorkel though there not much to do. Glass bottom boat is good. Food sold on the island is basic. Not all menu”s are written in other languages with pictures. Overall relaxing day.
