Great Barrier Reef mga tour

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.

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.

Napakagandang day tour sa Reef, nakahinto kami sa 2 diving spot at kasama rin sa package ko ang 1 helicopter flight. Mayroon ding photographer ang operator, na tumulong sa pagkuha ng mga underwater photo na maaari mong bilhin sa huli (bagaman medyo mahal sa $20/litrato). Simple lang ang tanghalian (steak, hipon, inihaw na isda, salad at pasta) ngunit masarap, at napakasariwa ng hipon. Ang nais ko sanang mapabuti ay ang anunsyo ng helicopter flight – mas maganda sana kung inihayag nila ang aking turn mga 10-15 minuto bago lumipad ang helicopter, para may sapat akong oras na magpalit ng normal na damit (nagsi-snorkeling ako bago iyon). Naniniwala rin ako na kung bibigyan ang mga pasahero ng hindi bababa sa 30 minuto bago ang pag-alis upang uminom ng gamot sa hilo, mas magiging epektibo ito. Ang ilang pasahero sa aking biyahe ay uminom ng gamot ngunit nahilo pa rin, marahil dahil hindi sapat ang oras para umiral ang gamot (kailangan mong inumin ito pagkatapos ng almusal, hindi bababa sa 30 minuto bago ang pag-alis).

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!

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. 😍

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.

Mayroon silang bata, masigla, at matulunging team para gabayan ka sa snorkeling. Kailangan mo lang maging malusog at may sapat na lakas para makasama. Napakaganda ng karanasan at talagang inaalagaan ka ng crew at team. Para sa mga lumalangoy o hindi lumalangoy, mas mainam na kumuha ng salbabida habang nag-snorkeling. Para sa mga hindi pa nakapag-snorkeling, napakaalat ng tubig-dagat ngunit kamangha-mangha ang mga tanawin ng korales sa ilalim ng tubig!!! Ang pinakamataas na bilang ng sasama ay humigit-kumulang 30 hanggang 40. Mayroong mga meryenda at gamot sa pagkahilo sa barko at maaari mo itong bayaran pagbaba mo sa dulo ng biyahe. Lubos na inirerekomenda na sumali sa karanasang ito.

Napakagandang karanasan! Talagang sulit puntahan ang Great Barrier Reef! Napakaganda ng bangka ng Sunlovers kumpara sa ibang mga bangka. Napakahusay ng mga gabay sa SeaWalker at Scuba Diving. Nagkaroon din kami ng pinakamagandang karanasan sa snorkeling!
