Scuba diving - We did the scuba diving. It was amazing all the staff on the boat were great, are scuba diving instructor Hiromi was brilliant.

Great afternoon of snorkeling - Had the BEST afternoon! I have very poor eyesight and booked this knowing my partner and friends would be able to snorkel. The option of the semi-submersible and observation deck was for me. However, I got there and discovered they had prescription goggles strong enough for me to use (-8). I was unexpectedly able to join my partner in a once in a lifetime experience! So grateful they were able to accomodate me!

The highlight of our Aussie vacay!!! - This was the highlight of our 2 week vacation! We were so lucky to have beat Cyclone🌀 Jasper the week prior. Everything about this company was spot on!! From our pre-booking and warm arrival to the enthusiastic crew on board the day of. Teddy was our guide and he did such an amazing job as our coach pairing divers and helping those who were at a little bit of a slower pace. The food offered on board was simple but good quality food. We were expecting measly tea and cookies. Apparently, QS is the only diving company that offers those perks. The following day we ran into another Quicksilver location and the service was consistent there as well. The most important part of our experience was that we ALWAYS felt safe. Highly recommend!!!

Amazing experience and very well organised - We had an amazing day sailing to the outer reef and snorkeling. The trip and activities were very well organised and the staff were very warm and helpful.

Strong recommendation, pontoon at the reef a differentiator - What stands apart with this excursion for us was the activity platform. It is a well equipped structure at the reef, providing more space and resources than just arriving on a boat. We've done a number of snorkling excursions around the world, and we found this setup differentiated. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The seas were choppy on the windy day we went out, and they worked hard to keep everyone feeling the best they could, paying close attention to anyone who said they felt nauseous. The boat is built for business, getting us out to the reef in 90 minutes. The pontoon is spacious, with separate staging areas for different activities. It was well staffed and pretty well organized. We had no issues on the day. The swim areas are well delineated and well managed by lifeguards. We did the ecological group intro snorkel, which was good. We decided to take the helicopter ride back, and it was incredible. Seeing the reef from 800 ft. in a new Bell helicopter was an exceptional life experience. The tour including two-way fly overs of areas of the reef, some rainforest and coastline was breathtaking and very comfortable. The two of us had different preferences on the day and did our own things with the pontoon as the central meeting place, including a pretty good buffet lunch, and seating in the shade. We were 100% happy with our choice going with Quicksilver and would do it again. We hope to be back in Port Douglas again in the future!

Amazing experience - The staff across all areas on this tour to the outer reef are super friendly and helpful. The weather on the day we went out was rainy and overcast, however the fish/reef don’t care about the weather and there was still plenty to see! So don’t worry if the weather is not the best, still worth going. The snorkeling around the area was amazing with heaps of coral and fish to see. The boat ride out is only 1.5 hours, with 3-4 hours or snorkeling/other activities. I only did the snorkelling, so can not comment on other activities. I would highly recommended doing this tour. The lunch food is very simple, if you are a picky eater I would suggest packing your own lunch. However you are there for the reef and not food.

First class trip to the Barrier Reef - This excursion was very well organized and offered a variety of options for the day. We regretted not coming prepared to snorkel. A previous bad experience had made us wary, but Quicksilver had such complete arrangements that we could have been comfortable doing it. We took the glass-bottomed boat, which was remarkable. The staff on the boat were personable and knowledgeable and the lunch was delicious!

By far our best Snorkeling Adventure - Our last trip was to Port Douglas, and we went out to the outer great barrier reef, it was such a perfect clear day., visibility was amazing and this is what I expect to see in the great barrier reef all the fish and reef itself was spectacular, since it takes a while to get there you arrive around 11:30 lunch starts at 12 you get about an hour to hour and a half of snorkeling and then you’re ready to head back but I did find it sufficient amount of time we were snorkeling all over the area, and was exhausted by then, we also did the submarine tour first then lunch which was really good, then finally we did all the snorkeling, it was a large boat that docked on a floating platform, it made it easier to get in and out of the water, I would highly recommend this trip, it was the best snorkeling we have ever done

One way to experience the reef - This was a bigger outfit so it was impersonal but the pontoon was pretty good in that it had something to offer everyone in your group. I think it’s a good way to go with a family or beginners.

A fun day - Visiting the reef is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Especially seeing the coral and fish from the semi-submersible. I did find a swimming with flippers(fins) quite clumsy but Matt was super helpful and encouraging
