They made every penny worth it, will do it again anytime

It’s the best experience I had in my life, what a fantastic bunch of people, so helpful and welcoming. Safety was top of the priority so you see them in every corner. The experience itself was worth every penny, especially for someone like me who is non-swimmer and thought would not be able to snorkel. I still ended up going snorkeling for 2 hours. Submarines and glass boat is good one too especially if you don’t want to get in water, you will really miss anything. Food was amazing and had vegan options too.

Truly a magical day on Reef Magic. A big tick on my bucket list.

Loved this trip to the Great Barrier Reef from Cairns. A dream come true for the family and I to do this together. The team were so helpful, the facilities and equipment were excellent. I’d highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience Australia at its finest.

The best option among all. Great experience. Highly recommended.

Such a great experience and something that can't be missed. The corals are so beautiful. Nice for family. Semi-submarine and glass boat for young kids. Had experience with other similar trips to Moore Reef but this is the best one ever. Amazing presentation with cultural and reef. Smooth arrangements, well organised. Ticket and SMS are sent through prior, you don't need to spare time to confirm or line up for tickets. Friendly staff with happy faces. Food is awesome.
