Thoroughly enjoyed our day. The boat trip to the island was great and the staff very helpful. We enjoyed our time on the island. We did the walk. Can strongly recommend the crocodile and turtle feeding. We did return on the earlier boat as we re not really water people but we still had a great time

It was a smooth activity and very friendly & polite crew explained all the details clearly. We enjoyed snorkeling in shallow waters. However there were no life guards when we needed some help.
Glass bottom ride was great and got to see lots of fishes and there were also fish feeding which brought fishes close to boat. Water was hazy so could see corals but didn’t see much colors.
The only reason I gave 4 starts is due to the fact that we had to pay for snorkeling gear, wet suit and even life jackets, which came to almost. I expect the tour company to provide snorkeling gear and life jacket at a minimum like other places.

I didn’t like this tour at all. It’s one of the cheaper ones and I guess you pay for what you get. Very crowded and unorganised.

I had a great time....but my hubby did not. He was very seasick I read the prior reviews and knew the 50 min boat ride to the island could be rough. I took a motion sickness pill. I was fine. A lot of people got sick on the way out...at least 30...the staff was busy with barf bags.
They do provide ginger pills....
I enjoyed the glass bottom boat tour and I brought my own snorkel gear. There were no jellyfish when we went mid April. I did not wear a stinger suit only a rash guard. Also water was very calm at the beach. Staff was very helpful.

Snorkelling but… the coral was below average. The cost to hire an umbrella was over the top.
Will be recommending other locations to view the reef.

This was fantastic! We booked the day before and it was half the price of most other snorkelling trips. The boat was smooth and staff really friendly. We were put off by some reviews saying that there’s not much to do on the island so opted for the shorter (3 hour) duration and I really wish we had stayed longer as it was so pretty! And plenty of shade etc., very easy to spend a full day there. 4 stars as we weren’t sure exactly where we should go for the snorkelling, you’re left to your own devices and whilst we saw plenty of fish I feel we would have seen a bigger range of wildlife if we knew where exactly to look.

Boat ride was about 40min to and fro green island per way.

Free and easy time in green island. I did snorkeling and it was fun.

We chose Glass Bottom Boat. The reef and fish viewing were great. 5 hours on the island were more than sufficient. Enjoyed our trip.

People were absolutely not respectful of the reef and the fauna living there. Saw many people stepping on the ground and disturbing the already imbalanced nature. Should’ve never booked this trip and support this continuous destruction. The staff on the boat, however, was very kind.
