Go dive the Barrier Reef, you won’t be disappointed

Published on Feb, 2025

We had originally booked onto the big cruise in ignorance so be careful when looking at the website. If you’re qualified as a scuba diver, book one of the smaller boats and go to 3 dive sites rather than the pontoon and just do 1 dive. My wife went snorkelling while I was diving and not being confident in the water, she felt very safe with the tuition and safety features. The dives the skipper selected for the day we went were very good, plenty to see down to 14m and each dive lasted approximately 40 minutes. The snacks and food included in the tour price were plentiful and welcome after diving! I would have gone out again if we had had the time, everyone on the boat from skipper to dive leader and crew were extremely friendly and helpful

A great day on the barrier reef.

Published on Feb, 2025

The crew was very professional and accommodating. The provided lunch was fabulous. We did one dive and a lot of snorkeling. Enjoyed everything about it. I highly recommend.

Would definitely do this tour again

Published on Feb, 2025

We booked this on our own as an excursion on our cruise. We had 2 non swimmers in our group and the guides went above and beyond. The Great Barrier Reef is a must see and Dave, Charlie, Alyson and the rest of the crew made it extraordinary!

Bucket list experience on the Great Barrier Reef!

Published on Feb, 2025

Had a great day diving with Calypso! Our dive master Reenie was fabulous - she clearly loves the ocean and was really excited to show us all the marine life along the reef. We did 2 of the 3 dives. The crew was friendly (we enjoyed a nice chat with the boat captain on the last stop while most everyone else was snorkeling and diving) and everything was extremely well run, professional and safe. We had great weather while out on the reef and followed a storm back into port, but the ride was surprisingly smooth. Definitely recommend!

Great visit to the outer reef!

Published on Feb, 2025

Crew was very attentive and professional; and extremely helpful in accommodating to the masks, snorkels and fins! Locations chosen and under sea life seen were very neat! Crew were very knowledgeable about the coral, plant an animal life.
