Reviews: Cairns Reef Magic 1-day tour [Reef Magic/Helicopter/Scuba Diving/Includes Buffet Lunch/Unlimited Snorkeling]

Guest User2025-07-21

The underwater world of the Great Barrier Reef is absolutely amazing! I went snorkeling and saw all sorts of corals, fish, and turtles—it was breathtaking! It felt like being on another planet!

Reviews: Cairns Half Day Tour a Great Barrier Reef Snorkeling Experience

Guest User2026-01-26

I enjoyed the excursion. Everything was well organized, and the crew was attentive. It's an hour's drive to the site, 1.5-2 hours snorkeling, and an hour back. The boat is small and fast. They provide masks, fins, and a swimsuit to protect against jellyfish.

Yes, the helicopter tour is highly recommended. The scenery is beautiful, many of the crew members speak Chinese, and the lunch is also good.

The food was delicious. We couldn't see much of the scenery because of the rain, but the night view was beautiful.
