Passeios em Great Barrier Reef

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.

Ótimo passeio de um dia no Recife, paramos em 2 pontos de mergulho e meu pacote também incluiu 1 voo de helicóptero. O operador também tem um fotógrafo, que ajudou a tirar fotos subaquáticas que você pode comprar depois (embora seja bem caro, a US$ 20/foto). O almoço é básico (bife, camarão, peixe grelhado, salada e massa), mas delicioso, e o camarão estava muito fresco. O que eu gostaria que tivesse sido melhor é o anúncio do voo de helicóptero - teria sido melhor se eles anunciassem minha vez cerca de 10-15 minutos antes da decolagem, para que eu tivesse tempo suficiente para trocar para roupas normais (eu estava mergulhando de snorkel logo antes disso). Também acredito que se os passageiros tivessem pelo menos 30 minutos antes da partida para tomar pílulas para enjoo, funcionaria melhor. Alguns passageiros na minha viagem tomaram a pílula, mas ainda assim passaram mal, talvez porque a pílula não teve tempo suficiente para fazer efeito (você deve tomá-la após o café da manhã, pelo menos 30 minutos antes da partida).

Overall a great experience and definitely a must to add onto your itineraries! The tour was organised and the staffs made sure everyone was having a safe and fun day at the reef. You have most of what you’ll need in the boat—sea sickness pills, drinks and snacks. We not only got to see The Great Barrier Reef upclose but also above from the Heli. 😍

Although it was a half-day tour, lunch was included, and we were able to fully enjoy the Great Barrier Reef—we were extremely satisfied! We received an email a couple of days beforehand asking us to call to choose between snorkeling or the glass-bottom boat, but they were able to assist us via email instead. I had heard that the boat causes motion sickness, but I didn't get that sick at all. Overall, it was a thoroughly satisfying tour.

Since I was a bit nervous about swimming, I opted for the glass-bottom boat and snorkeling package! The glass-bottom boat was amazing; just looking down, I could see beautiful fish and sea turtles, which was truly breathtaking. For snorkeling, I paid an additional AUD 12 to rent a life vest! Just a short distance away, there were schools of colorful fish, and swimming among them myself was a completely different experience. (The fish themselves were actually clearer to see from the glass-bottom boat!) Coin lockers, the souvenir shop, and restaurants all accepted credit card payments!

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.

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.

Experiência excelente! A Grande Barreira de Corais definitivamente vale a pena! O barco Sunlovers era muito bom em comparação com outros barcos. Os guias para o SeaWalker e o Scuba Diving foram excelentes. Também tivemos a melhor experiência de snorkel!

Eles tinham uma equipa jovem, vibrante e prestável para o guiar no snorkeling. Basta estar em forma e saudável para participar. A experiência foi fantástica e a tripulação e a equipa cuidam muito bem de si. Nadadores ou não nadadores provavelmente se beneficiarão mais com um flutuador durante a experiência de snorkeling. Para aqueles que nunca fizeram snorkeling antes, a água do mar é realmente salgada, mas as vistas subaquáticas dos corais são incríveis!!! O número máximo de participantes será de cerca de 30 a 40. Lanches e comprimidos para enjoo estão disponíveis a bordo e pode pagá-los quando desembarcar no final da viagem. Super altamente recomendado participar desta experiência.
