Very happy nice service highly recommend. The crew members ware really helpful and agent was very helpful too
The crew is amazing, they are very caring and informative. They have a great system and they work their butts off.
Genuinely so much fun. I really enjoyed the relaxed feel of the tour- you could go in and out of the water as much as you would like which was nice. It was also great that the guide was there in the water with us, however we were allowed to venture off and explore the reef, not having to stick right next to him. I loved the amount of food options that we had for lunch and throughout the day. The boat was very nice as well- clean and lots of places to catch some rays.
We booked a family dive/snorkel trip for my retirement-60th birthday trip. About 4 months before our trip my adult son with high functioning autism had a grand mal seizure (no prior history and it was incredibly scary) and received an Epilepsy diagnosis. He is a great swimmer and was really looking forward to the trip so with doctor clearance we contacted reef day trippers but were understandable apprehensive about the trip. The team could not have been more kind and professional. My son was given a life jacket, held onto a life ring and was given a customized reef tour that was the highlight of our trip. In addition, they were able to find my husbands original PADI certification and re-certify him and he and my other sons did an intro dive. A larger boat might be fancier and have more bells and whistles but we were given customized individual attention and they met the individualized needs of each person on the boat. There is an expression Go big or go home, but in this case going smaller is better. Thank you!
Staff were friendly, fun, professional and safety conscious. Snorkelling was great, lunch was lovely, small group size - highly recommend!
Unorganized start. Boat was docked at a different pier than listed on pickup point information due to dredging. No update was sent to passengers. We needed to wait for food and water to be loaded, which was a 30 minute delay. Sailboat motored there and back. No sailing.
