Reviews: Cairns Sunlover Fitzroy Island 1-day tour [Optional snorkeling/lunch | Emerald Island]
Guest User2025-09-10
Easy to book with lots of options to suit your needs. We chose the transfer and snorkelling gear package. Just be mindful that you mind have to pick up the gear from other boat before heading to the one that will take you to the island. If you have a big family and kids, it might be problematic to take all of this stuff with you and walk to the boat. The boat was packed and we struggled to find a place to sit with all of this stuff, and had to seat separately. Apart from that the experience was great, the island is beautiful and you can see the reef and all the sea life. The beach itself is covered in washed away corals, which is beautiful but you might need coral shoes or crocs to make it easier to walk. You can also hike up the mountain or Nudey beach and the view and water is stunning. The food and water are pricey but you take take it with you from land.★

Reviews: Lazy Cat Travel Airlie Beach Lightning Cat Whitehaven Beach Snorkeling English 1-day Tour with Lunch Hill Inlet
Guest User2025-12-12
This project was very well designed. There was a shuttle bus for early departure and late return. Upon arrival at the ferry terminal, the driver handed us over to the tour leader, who led us onto the speedboat. I was worried about seasickness, but the speedboat sped along the waves without me feeling dizzy at all. The tour leader served us desserts, and then took us to Hook Island for snorkeling. The coral and fish underwater were so beautiful! We snorkeled twice in different spots, experiencing different underwater worlds. Afterwards, we returned to the boat for a Western-style fast food meal. After resting, the speedboat continued its journey, taking us to Whitehaven Beach. The snow-white sand and turquoise sea were simply breathtaking—a truly beautiful scene, making the trip worthwhile.★

Reviews: Cairns Great Barrier Reef 1-day tour with Silverswift [Optional scuba diving]
Guest User2024-03-30
The outer Barrier Reef is really beautiful, and the corals are all colored. The reason why I chose sliver swift must be because of the professionalism, Yinyan is simply a gospel for diving lovers. After close contact with the coral, I will find that the original "Coral Sea" really exists!★

Reviews: Cairns Magic Reef Great Barrier Reef 1-day tour with snorkeling, lunch, glass-bottom boat, and semi-submarine
Guest User2025-11-08
The so-called "Chinese-speaking tour" is actually just a confirmation email sent to your phone by the merchant after you've successfully purchased and paid for the tickets. It lists the activities included in the package. However, there's virtually no Chinese-speaking service throughout the trip; it's essentially like buying two packages and then traveling entirely independently. On the boat and on the Great Barrier Reef platform, those who speak good English can learn more about the activities and have a smoother experience, while those who don't can just go with the flow. The overall experience of this tour wasn't as great as I had imagined beforehand; this varies from person to person because everyone's past experiences and expectations are different.
