Reviews: Australia travel Cairns Mission Beach skydiving 1-day tour with ocean views
Guest User2019-03-30
Very recommended,
At 6:30 in the morning, there is a car from the hotel to the city. I changed the bus to drive two hours to Meishen Beach. Due to the weather, I will wait for the news at 9:30. I will inform the weather at 12:00 that I can parachute. I will get on the plane at 14:30. I will start the return trip at 16:30. It is still two hours to the hotel entrance.

Reviews: Cairns Half Day Tour a Great Barrier Reef Snorkeling Experience
Guest User2026-01-26
I enjoyed the excursion. Everything was well organized, and the crew was attentive. It's an hour's drive to the site, 1.5-2 hours snorkeling, and an hour back. The boat is small and fast. They provide masks, fins, and a swimsuit to protect against jellyfish.★

Reviews: Great Barrier Reef Full Day Tour from Cairns
Guest User2024-09-15
Wife enjoyed the snorkling on the reef .It was her first time. I've done this before ,and in New Caledonia, and Samoa. I think the company could offer a reduced cost for passanger only accompanying a diver as wife wouldn't go by herself . And as couple not both partners want to dive.
