Beautiful location, well organised. Glass bottom tour is highly recommended! Can get very crowded during long weekends, but the organzisers did a gob job sticking to schedules. Unfortunately didn't spot any sea turtles

We enjoyed learning to snorkel , having the equipment hire included in the fee. The boat ride was lovely, clean , and spacious. We ran out of things to do as everything else was expensive.

The snorkelling on Green Island was good, it’s great to see the colour in the coral starting to come back and there were a variety of species to see. Was it worth the 5 hours on Green Island, no! The lady in the snorkel and dive shop was extremely rude, Traveling out to Green Island with the Quicksilver Group was average at best. Travelling back from Green Island again with the Quicksilver Group was dismal. The boat was late and the crew just rude. Their whole safety brief was: if you’ve been onboard before you’ll know where the life jackets are if not see a crew member. That was it. Green Island in itself is extremely over priced.

Had an awesome time snorkelling at the reef. We were lucky enough to spot some sharks and a few turtles during our snorkelling as well as some stingrays and a great array of reef fish. We really liked that the day was self-guided and unstructured, meaning we could spend our time as we liked without being herded to certain activities. We took the eco-tour to Green Island departing at 10:30 which was perfect for us as it meant we could take the morning really easy and didn't have to stress too much about being at the marina early for a pre-planned tour.

The glass bottom boat was worth it if you don't want to snorkel. It was very warm but luckily we could have a nice dip in the ocean with no stingers to ruin the fun

Ride out to Green Island ok. Dive shop crew were very nice. Lifeguard on beach 2 was very helpful. Had fun snorkeling. Disappointed that I did not see more colorful fish.

We have experienced a pontoon reef visit years ago without kids, island experience far better with kids, we have 9 and 10 girls, easy to access the surrounding reef at their own pace and some showers to wash off the sand ?
Glass bottom boat was great, Chelsea was a great skipper with finding all the marine wildlife.
Having access to the swimming pool at the end of the day with a beer ? was perfect before the return trip, crew goodbye on the dock was a nice touch, very traditional.
Only issue being an Australian resident we did not realise that Viator is an US company the great deal was in US $ not AU $, we payed $80 more, please check before buying.

We felt the glass bottom was worth the money from the captain was very informative and position the boat to see many fish and the coral. We also saw turtles.
