    I had an amazing snorkeling and beginner scuba diving experience with the crew of the Evolution. I was really worried before the dive, but it was a great adventure. The food was also very tasty and had a great variety. The only thing I've found a bit exaggerated is that after paying for the trip we need to pay quite a lot to get the picture taken under water. Also, I have never crossed the photographer girl, only when we were going down diving, so I barely had any photos. But it was an amazing day.

    I went for a Great barrier reef snorkeling and diving cruise with my elderly parents and sister, and it was Simply Amazing!. The crew was joyful, attentive, approachable, funny and extremely helpful. The food was fresh and delicious. The snorkeling and diving instructors were highly knowledgeable and made everyone feel safe and comfortable. They encouraged all participants who were non confident swimmers and well supported the participants who were confident with their swimming ability. The entire crew had great energy and positive vibes. I would do this again and would recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the great barrier reef for the first time.
