Good trip to see coral without taking a whole day - Great trip to see the coral without having to be on a boat all day.
Crew were really good and the guide was fantastic as she explained so much to everyone and encouraged people to ask questions. As the trip was around the harbour islands the sea was very calm so no issues with bouncing in waves

A Trip to Treasure - The information about the corals and sea life we were seeing was so enthusiastically given. We chanced to see porpoises playing. The operators went out of their way to assist us on a perfect day at Shute Harbour.

Very nice, not spectacular - Quite nice, but almost only to see corals and no other animals. Would've imagined it would be more spectacular. Only a few fish and only 2-3 varieties
