Awesome time even though I through up the entire time on the boat haha. I would recommend doing scuba over snorkeling so you can see more but snorkeling is still a lot of fun.

So many hours in the boat made me motion sick. But overall a great experience.

Snorkelling on the reef was great particularly at the second stop where you are right above the coral. We saw a huge turtle, a barracuda, a reef shark and some fantastic coloured fish.
Most of the staff were very enthusiastic and helpful although I did feel that one or two were a little impatient with introductory divers.
If you've ever had motion sickness, make sure you take tablets as the first place we stopped was very rocky and lots of people suffered but overall very good.
Felt like they stole my money, poor conditions (high winds gusts to 40k,very strong current), very small reef compared to other operators. Charged $10 for stinger suit and you needed it, plus another $20 reef tax. Only good thing was lunch! Follow up snorkel on fantasea 's platform on hardy reef out of Airlie beach was great, all inclusive, very professional crew, etc.
