We had a fantastic time on the Moreton Island tour today! The entire crew was so friendly, but a huge shout-out goes to Michelle, who looked after our snorkeling activities. As a non-swimmer, I was a bit nervous, but he was incredibly patient and nice. He took excellent care of both me and my 7-year-old son, making sure we felt safe and confident the whole time. It made the experience so much more enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour, especially for families!

I really enjoyed the day. You did heaps fun stuff! For adrenaline junkies! It feels a bit rushed tho :) (therefore nothing for relaxers!) One small recommendation (if possible with ferry): leave 60 mins later or so, sothat people can chill at the beach longer during lunch or afterwards. Also a few more information about the dessert and the "man made" reef would be lovely.

Lovely boat trip over which takes 90 mins, a bit chaotic upon arrival but got to hire kayak and snorkel to the wrecks. This was amazing and a great experience. The beach is beautiful and the pools/amenities good too. Some of the equipment is tired and needs updating - particularly the SUP. The hire shop closed at 3 which was a shame and difficult to understand why.

First and foremost you should know the day will feel VERY rushed. You’ll spend roughly 4 hours traveling to/from the island (from the Brisbane pick-up) and roughly 5 hours on the island itself. Each activity is broken down into 45-minute segments with a half-hour lunch, so by the time you get the hang of the activity it’s time to move on. If you are traveling with friends and booking tours separately, when you check in they’ll have pre-assigned groups. Please note they can change these groups while on the ferry if you just let them know. If you try to tell them upon check-in they get visibly frustrated and annoyed. All that said, the staff was truly incredible and made the day unforgettable experience after unforgettable experience! - Michelle lead kayaking and was personable, funny, and very knowledgeable. He was informative for those new to kayaking and gave a great tour for those more experienced, pointing out fish and giving tips on where to find them and how to feed them. - Ryan lead snorkeling and the experience through the wrecks was truly unforgettable. Unfortunately during this tour there was a guest who couldn’t swim so his attention was focused on that guest and slowed the entire group down, but he still gave a good tour pointing out where to look and things to see. IF YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO SWIM THIS MAY NOT BE THE ACTIVITY FOR YOU! Tips for sand surfing - Bring/wear a hat, sunglasses, and a face-covering if you don’t want to be eating sand for the next few hours - The hike up is strenuous, but take your time and enjoy the views. The ride down is worth it

I had a great time on the island. The tour was very well organised and the timing worked perfectly for what was a relatively large group of tourists! Snorkeling along all types of fish has to be the highlight of the trip!!

A full on day to Moreton Island where we got to enjoy a lovely ferry journey over and then 3 different activities. We were very apprehensive about the sand boarding (as we were 2 of the older members of the group) but it was great fun. The bus journey up was a little hairy in places , but the driver/guide was so skilled and know every inch of that bus! The boarding was exhilarating and an experience to remember !! We then had a perfect picnic lunch before going on to do snorkelling. Ryan was an excellent guide, full of facts and really looked after his groups. He soon gave me the confidence I needed, and I was soon off enjoying the fantastic world under the surface. The ship wrecks were a treat! Finally, it was Kayaking with Michele, again a fantastic guide who made this so much fun . Thanks to all for a Brilliant. Recommend this trip for all ages !!

The trip has an excellent range of adventures. 4WD off roading, sandboarding, kyacking and snorkelling. We loved it. It is a 90 minute ferry trip each way.

A great day out at Moreton Island and truly the full day experience. The snorkeling was definitely the highlight.
