Great boat tour

Really enjoyed this boat trip! The captain and his assistant were very entertaining. They were so helpful and informative of the ocean around us and the geology of the rock's etc. The whole experience was fantastic!

Fantastic cruise

Our family had a lovely cruise with Chris and Ella. They were both so friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The entire coastline and caves are amazing. There is so much more to see than just Cathedral Cove. The boat is quite new with toilet and a full roof to stop the sunburn. It was really special being able to swim in the waters and snorkel from the boat. I thoroughly recommend this tour.

Better Than Expected for Sure

We were fortunate the weather was great and we even had a pod of dolphins as a bonus. This tour is way more than Cathedral Cove and it was terrific backing the tour boat deep into an ocean cave. The snorkeling was also very good and the hot shower appreciated. The captain and crew were informative and terrific.
