Really nice experience, Moreton Island is amazing, we had the best time. The guides were awesome. Snorkeling was AMAZING, we saw plenty of marine life, including turtle, pulp and a small shark. Low points: meeting point bus (they were late and a lot of paper work and bureaucratic stuff that kept us half an hour ar the bus terminal. We could fill all of that online and pay online, don't know what we were doing that on site) and lunch (just a sandwich, juice box and a muffin but they do sell food and beverage on the ferry).

It was an awesome experience to get through 3 activities in one day at Moreton Island! Moreton island was absolutely beautiful! Everything was very well organised - from getting all the admin stuff completed prior to getting on the Mircat, to arranging the groups to have rostered activities and then a nice, no-fuss lunch that didn’t require any plates and cutleries! The time set for each activity was great, however, it would have been nice to have more time to jump in the water before hopping back on the Mircat. The tour guides were so nice, friendly and helpful. In particular, I’d like to commend Gemma, who encouraged me to snorkel despite my fear of being out in the deep, as I am not a swimmer. She suggested I grab onto the float and she will hold onto it, to give me an opportunity to see the beautiful fish. She did as promised and I truly enjoyed the experience! Thank you so much Gemma! I was surprised it was her first day because she did so well!

It was really good day trip! Every one was friendly and kind, so I had a great time. Only one thing, I was waiting for at least 20 minutes before snorkeling, but after that I couldn't take a shower because of time. I thought if I didn't wait before, I could take a shower. Thank you for good trip!
