Amazing Great Barrier Reef Tour experience with the Passions of Paradise Crew !!
Had an absolutely amazing time on the Passions of Paradise Reef Tour yesterday! All the staff were very friendly and professional. Special shout out to reef dive experience instructor Ada who we were lucky enough to have as our dive experience instructor. Our group had nil previous diving experience and Ada managed to lead and instruct us in such a way that instilled confidence. We all had such a great time with Ada that we decided to go ahead with the second dive experience at reef stop no. 2! The reef locations are amazing and Ada made sure to communicate with us while Underwater and pointed out all the special coral and fish species etc. Ada - thank you! Food was great, staff were pleasant and The Great Barrier Reef knowledge session on the trip back was enlightening! The Captain/Skipper was more than happy to have a chat and answer our questions about the reef. Reef photographer Sota is magic with the underwater camera so I would recommend buying the pics, we certainly did! Dive instructor Phoebe was really warm and welcoming and gave a great dive experience instruction session on the way to the reef! Cannot speak anymore highly of this tour company for the reef and all staff involved! 100% would recommend !! Plus there is a bar for a few sneaky beverages on the way back in! Thank you Passions of paradise for an experience I will not forget !

Great experience
When you visit this area, particularly if it is your first experience of going to the reef I would highly recommend this tour. The staff all ensured you enjoyed the experience and provided an all round enjoyable trip. Snorkelling was what we undertook though many others on the boat went scuba diving. The boat is magnificent with sails up on the return journey to add something different. Extremely safe and the crew provided real confidence for those who were a little hesitant in swimming in the ocean. The lunch provided was for me very average. Refreshments available on board. Saw heaps of colourful fish. Underwater cameras are available to hire on board though there is a hire shop attached to the cruise terminal that can supply the equipment slightly cheaper. Certainly recommend.
