I came to Australia for a solo trip to go skydiving. The original date I booked a month in advance was canceled due to operational reasons, and I was asked to reschedule, which also extended my itinerary. However, I still believe it was absolutely worth it to go skydiving. The scenery was incredibly beautiful and truly breathtaking. Although my instructor was a foreigner, they explained everything thoroughly, making it the best experience of my life and an amazing trip. It was around 8:30 AM in late May, and my attire of a T-shirt under a hoodie with long pants was just right. While it was hot on the ground, it's very windy at altitude, so I recommend wearing long sleeves for the jump.
Facilities: We met at the site, watched an instructional video, stored our belongings in lockers, and then met our instructors. We then drove to the jump site in a car, with about six people per group.

We were told there was a possibility we wouldn't be able to fly due to bad weather, but we all believed in a miracle and waited, and they waited for us. The experience might be scary, but it's an activity that leaves you with a great sense of accomplishment. Video recording costs $190, but it's not just about the jump; they communicate with you and film before you get on the plane, inside the plane, and after landing. The edited video, with music, arrives later, so I thought $190 was a reasonable price. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

This place is well run and very organized with good friendly and responsive staff. it’s such a beautiful and amazing area with waterfalls, creeks and forest. I wish I have some photos to show because my phone was taken away for safety reason.

The onboard staff were very enthusiastic and provided detailed introductions. After boarding, we left our ID at the counter to borrow prescription diving masks. At the second dive site, we decided on the spot to pay the 20 AUD for the glass-bottom boat ride, where we saw many fish and corals. The meals on board were simple and average, so those who care about food can bring their own snacks. Also, it is recommended to take motion sickness medicine to avoid ruining a wonderful trip.

Excellent experience! Thr Great Barrier Reef is definitely worth going! Sunlovers boat was really nice compared to other boats. The guides to the SeaWalker and the Scuber Diving were excellent. We also had the best snorkeling experience !

Great day tour at the Reef, we got to stop at 2 diving spots and my package also includes 1 helicopter flight. The operator also has a photographer, who helped you took underwater photos which you can purchased later (though it is quite pricey at $20/pic). Lunch is basic (steak, prawns, grilled fish, salad & pasta) but delicious, and the prawns were very fresh. What I wish could have been better is the helicopter flight announcement - it would have been better if they announced my turn roughly 10-15 mins before the flight took off, so I'd have enough time to change to normal clothes (I was snorkelling right before that). Also I believe if passengers are given at least 30 mins before departure to take motion sickness pills, it will work better. Some passengers on my trip took the pill but still got sick, maybe bcoz the pill did not have enough time to take effect (you gotta take it after breakfast, at least 30 mins before departure).

Wonderful experience! Well ogranized for over 100 passsengers, from safety, seating, equipment to lunch and afternoon tea. Great for our first time snorkelling, and staff were friendly. unfortunately, the helicopter was cancelled due to the weather but everything else was good. Even though we got really seasick (although we took tablets), it was totally worth it!

We participated in an afternoon departure on a pleasantly cool spring day. On the way there, we encountered whales! An announcement was made, and we stopped for a while to watch them. At Green Island, snorkeling was canceled that day due to a crocodile sighting, so we went on a glass-bottom boat tour instead. We could have still gone into the ocean, but we decided to enjoy the island's walking trails, which led to several small beaches. Before heading back, we dipped our feet in the water.

Nice island getaway with a relaxing vibe
We joined a day trip to Fitzroy Island and overall had a nice experience. The boat ride from the marina took about 45 minutes, which was quite manageable.
The weather in the days before our trip had been rainy, so the guide let us know in advance that the water might not be very clear. Even so, it was still enjoyable to spend time on the island and go into the water. The beach we were at had corals instead of soft sand, so it was a bit harder and more slippery to walk on, something visitors may want to be prepared for. We still managed to see a few fishes and corals while snorkelling.
Overall, it was a relaxing and pleasant day trip, especially if you want to enjoy island scenery and spend some time by the water. I’d recommend bringing suitable footwear for the coral beach and managing expectations depending on recent weather conditions.

What to know before visiting Cairns
Cairns at a glance — reefs, cruises and outdoor fun
Cairns is best known for cruises, day tours and water activities, with zoos, aquariums and parks rounding out the most-booked experiences. Demand on Klook follows a clear seasonal rhythm, with a busy late-summer peak and much quieter winter months.
When to visit — pick crowds or calm and budget
Klook booking data show demand peaks in February and drops to a trough in July; other busy months include August and January. Prices move independently at times: according to Klook data March is typically the priciest month for activities, while September tends to be the cheapest. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, target September or the quieter mid-year months; for full peak-season atmosphere choose February or August when demand is highest.
Tips for travellers from Hong Kong — timing and booking advice
Travellers from Hong Kong typically book around nine days in advance, with many last-minute options available about two days out and earlier-booking behaviour up to around 29 days. For peak months named above, plan and tentatively lock in key cruises or tours earlier; for shorter trips you can often book a few days ahead and still find good options on Klook.
