What a perfect day!
Maral_K, Jul 2022
From pickup to the flight, the food, the snorkeling, and most importantly, the staff, this experience was worth every penny. Pickup was prompt right from our hotel. At the airport, we were fitted with snorkel gear (including flippers, life jacket, and wetsuit for those inclined to use them), given a safety briefing by our pilot (Joey), and off we went to the small plane that would provide spectacular views of the GBR on our way to lizard island. At the island it was just a short, lovely (and informative!) walk to a secluded beach where we shed our gear and experienced some of the best snorkeling in the world. Lunch was delicious and plentiful. We were fortunate that the weather was also perfect. I genuinely could not have imagined a better day. A huge thanks to our pilot who took great care of our group of 4 all day!
