You will be greeted upon arrival and given a brief island orientation tour before exploring the island at your leisure.

Maria Silva, 13 Jun 24
Absolutely brilliant! Friendly pilots, helpful staff and beautiful food. The highlight for us was the glass bottom boat tour and snorkeling. I can honestly say this is the best site that I have snorkeled on the Great Barrier Reef. It was an amazing day, and I can't wait to come back. Loved it!!!!!!!
