Great tour on the Reef

What a wonderful snorkelling experience!
Our lovely guide was incredibly patient, attentive and caring. She made sure that everyone in our group was well looked after, regardless of their swimming or snorkelling experience. She took the time to help each person feel comfortable and safe in the water.She also took us searching for sea turtles and introduced us to the many different fish and marine life we saw along the way. Her enthusiasm and knowledge made the whole experience even more special.The two hours went by far too quickly, but the memories will stay with us for a very long time.Thank you for such a beautiful experience. Highly recommended! 🐢🐠🪸

Great local knowledge, well organised, friendly staff.
We had a great day out with Aquascene. The guides, Jake and Garry were really friendly, polite and super interesting. The boat was well appointed, and the guides took us to great places for snorkelling and swimming.It was really kid friendly, with all sort of paddle boards and boogie boards with glass holes to see through (for the kids who didn't want to snorkel).We come to Maggie all the time, and finally got around to doing this. We wished we'd done it years ago - highly recommend!

Excellent day.
A fantastic day out on the Great Barrier Reef with Calypso Reef Cruises! A very special thank you to Irene, who was incredibly kind, caring and patient with me. She went out of her way to help me get into my snorkelling gear and, most importantly, she respected my own pace and gave me the time I needed before getting into the water. Her kindness and understanding made a real difference to my experience. The entire crew were fantastic friendly, professional and very helpful throughout the day. And a special mention to the Captain Lisa who did an excellent job and helped make the whole trip feel safe and enjoyable. I really appreciate the care and effort you all put into making everyone feel comfortable and welcome. Highly recommended! 10/10.

Great tour. Lots to see. The introductory scuba dive was about 20-30 minutes. Do also note that you are not allowed to free dive after scuba diving.Except that the scuba diving time was quite short, it was really worth the money as you more or less get to be in finding nemo.

A must do snorkelling day out
The fun started from the get-go! 🌊🐠 We had Claudia as our guide and Toby as our captain on RedCat 1, the tour was fully booked, the atmosphere was buzzing. The conditions couldn’t have been more perfect it was one of those magical days you hope for!After a quick briefing covering everything we needed to know, we set off for our first snorkelling spot at Butterfly Reef. We saw loads of colourful coral and so many beautiful fish. Then it was on to spot number two, where things got even more incredible. We explored all around, spotting bigger fish, amazing coral and so much marine life we could have stayed there all day!Back on the boat, a lovely lunch was waiting for us before we headed off to Whitehaven Beach. We did a bush walk to one of the most spectacular lookouts ever, then made our way down to the beach. The sand was unbelievably white, the water was the most gorgeous shade of blue, we even had a quick swim.As we started making our way back, we spotted a turtle 🐢 and a whale breaching in the distance.Claudia kept us entertained with loads of interesting information throughout the day.Our family had an absolute ball and would definitely do this trip again!A huge thank you to the whole RedCat team. From the moment we were collected from our hotel, taken to the meeting point, fitted for our wetsuits and welcomed onto the boat, everything ran so smoothly.What an incredible day and a wonderful tour! Highly recommend RedCat, we loved every minute! ❤️

Incredible time with a super friendly crew and lovely ride out to a stunning reef site at Sudbury reeeeeff. The crew were so knowledgeable about all things marine related and I learnt so much, especially sebs marine bio talk in the morning which was so helpful before getting in the water. The crew Kiki, cam, Sophie, alex and seb were all so enthusiastic and passionate about the reef and everyone aboard was so friendly would highly recommend to anyone visiting cairns wanting the best reef trip.

We were both beginners and they were very helpful and made us feel at ease. Reaching the reef was a bit bumpy so I suggest taking something for seasickness. They also provided prescription goggles for 15 AUD. Overall amazing experience and special thanks to Jo!

We had an amazing day out with Cooly Eco Adventures! Staff were amazing and incredibly helpful, Jemma was a very skilled skipper and put us in the best positions for our swims, and Hayley did a fantastic job keeping everyone safe and ensuring everyone saw the whales. They were both so informative and really knew their stuff, with lots of amazing facts and answering everyone’s questions. Could really they respected the whales space and that our interactions were on the whales terms. Highly recommend!
