Når du setter seil, stirrer du ut over Coral Sea og taster inn smakfulle muffins og te eller kaffe. Under reisen vil besetningen gjennomgå grunnleggende snorklingteknikker og hjelpe deg med å bli egnet for din første snorkling eller dykk. Ankomme ved første stopp og, avhengig av hvilken aktivitet du har valgt, kan du enten gå ned til snorkelplattformene for å få lett tilgang til vannet eller delta i dykkelæreren for ditt innledende eller sertifiserte dykk. Guidede snorkelutflukter er tilgjengelige for nybegynnere eller mindre trygge snorklere, mens dykkermestere følger små grupper på ikke mer enn seks personer. Etter å ha jobbet opp en appetitt i vannet, slapp av på dekk mens lunsj på bordkokken tilbereder lunsj. Deretter fest på en deilig buffé med varme og kalde retter, inkludert vegetariske retter og rikelig med salater, frisk frukt og brød. Kolde drikker er tilgjengelig for kjøp. Fortsett til det andre dykkestedet, hvor du får en ny sjanse til å snorkle eller dykke. Når du utforsker de levende koralene i Great Barrier Reef, ser du etter eksotisk marine liv som papegøyefisk, pufferfisk eller klovnefisk. Hvis du er heldig, kan du til og med få øye på en rev hai eller havskilpadde. Hvis du har spørsmål om dine observasjoner, vil alle bli besvart under en spesiell marine livs presentasjon når du er ombord. Etter en hel dag på sjøen, sett seil til Cairns, hvor turen din slutter tilbake på cruiseterminalen.

The boat is lovely and I was very pleasantly surprised how stable it was (as I did worry about sea sickness but I was absolutely fine). You have a nice amount of time travelling on it until the first location to have a sunbath and chill on it. Some refreshments and fruit are also provided when you get on the boat.
We spent a good 30/40 minutes snorkelling until it was our turn to dive.. sadly we didn’t see anything other than fish.
This was the first time that I had ever dived and I didn’t realise how nervous I would feel going under the water for the first time. Corinda was our instructor and I honestly couldn’t fault her. She was so patient with me when I was clearly a bit panicked at the start and motivated me to continue and do the dive when I tried to insist I was too scared - I am so grateful for this as I can now say I have dived in the Great Barrier Reef. I held onto her arm for dear life under water but she kept checking in with me very frequently so I soon was able to remain calm and enjoy the dive as I knew I was in such safe hands.. so thank you Corinda!
We only ended doing our intro dive for 20-30 mins and then if you want a second dive it’s an additional $60 on top of what you have already paid (so quite expensive) but you can just snorkel instead.
I would say that the photos you buy are very expensive (and you can easily get away with one person paying as you just air drop yourself from an iPad and then airdropping to your friends etc). The photos in the ‘package’ of the coral and wildlife are all from 2022, when I thought they would be from our dive so you could get them off Google for free.
Other than that it was a lovely day. All the staff were amazing - friendly and accommodating from start to finish so would highly recommend!

Great crew who were fun and knowledgeable. The trip to the reef was easy a comfortable boat. I did snorkeling and it was my first time so real beginner. First location saw a huge amount of marine life on the reef. In the second location there was a bit less in terms of marine life on the day I visited but I did see a shark there which was great. One of the best experiences I’ve had travelling. Take a GoPro if you can. Thoroughly recommend.

This experience was awesome. The crew was great and I appreciated the guide Jazz who helped me around the reef. She took the time to explain what we were seeing. I also enjoyed getting to know her better on the way back. I would definitely recommend this experience.

Third time out on the reef with 3 different boats, the previous two were good but not in the same league as Passions . Everything was superb, crew ,food ,organisation of the diving and snorkelling.
Big shout out to Lilly who helped my wife and took her out snorkelling who has a fear of the sea .👏👏
We will definitely use them again 👍👍

There are three things that stood out for us on this day out to the barrier reef. Firstly, the numbers on board are considerably lower than many of the other operators - 86 on the large catamaran on the day we went, so you have space to sit down, eat the very good lunch (seconds available if you’re so inclined).
Secondly, all the crew are genuinely friendly and frequently stop by to check on you or chat.
Finally (and most importantly) is their attitude to safety and ensuring the range of swimming abilities and medical conditions are surfaced and mitigated. There are headcounts before you set off and after each dive. There is a brief but effective medical questionnaire to complete and they go through each one, following up individually if necessary. They don’t stop anyone swimming on the reef (regardless of health condition or ability) - the aim is to ensure you do it safely.
If you’re nervous, there will be crew members with life rings who will effectively tow you over the reef. The kit (stinger suit and mask and snorkel) is good and they have prescription goggles if you want them. In my case, with some managed medical conditions, they just put red tape around the snorkel so they can check how you’re doing. There are spotters and a boat constantly checking on you.
The views of the reef are great. There are two dive points, chosen depending on the wind and weather. We preferred the first one, but views of the coral and the stunning range of fish are great. If you want you can hire an underwater camera for Aus$60 or buy a pic of yourself from their scuba cameraman.
Drinks and food are not expensive - beer $8 - and the food is very good. There’s coffee and tea on arrival and a snack in the afternoon. We were back on the harbour at 4.30 so had to wait a few minutes to 5pm in order to benefit from the $15 ‘reef deal’ at the shopping centre underground car park that’s 5 mins from the Reef Terminal. All in all a great day, made by the crew with a helping hand from the reef itself.

This tour took us to Little Tracey at Flynn Reef and The Edge at Milne Reef with plenty of fish and coral diversity. The weather was perfect and visibility was amazing. The Passions crew was knowledgeable and made the full day adventure so fun. Bonus points for partnering with conservation groups and efforts. Highly recommend Passions of Paradise!

We had the most amazing, forever-to-remember experience of snorkeling in the GBR with Passions! Everything was top notch. They picked us up from Trinity Beach right on time, and transported us to Cairns from we were to board the catamaran. Checkin was a breeze. The vessel and the snorkeling equipment were in great condition and the food was good as well. We had a couple of vegetarians in our group who had ample choice of items.
The staff were friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. In fact there were two marine biologists onboard and one of them gave an informative talk about the GBR and the marine animals there. We enjoyed it very much.
The captain, Craig, was great and explained to us how he decides on which reef to go to on a particular date. We visited two reefs - Milln and Flynn and they were both extraordinarily beautiful to snorkel in, and they were teeming with marine animals. We opted to snorkel with a staff member at both the reefs (Kennedy at Milln and Gonzalo at Flynn), who both went out of their way to explain to us what we were seeing. When it was hard to point to a fish, they would dive down, holding their breath, and point to it from up close. We saw so many different species of fish and corals.
I would highly recommend this experience and this company if you are in Australia

Which reefs within the great barrier reef does this tour visit please?
Hi there, we went to Milln Reef and a few other sites in that area. I believe that they vary according to conditions. I reckon if you contact them they will let you know. 🙂

We will be on a cruise ship - docking at 0700hrs and leaving at 1900 - according to the current schedule
Is this suitable for us to book - or will it be too tight timings wise?
We have to be back on board at 1830

They are a fantastic company and if they can accommodate your timings I’m sure they will. You should be fine if your cruise is docking near to their departure point.

Do you have to be able to swim for the snorkelling? Or will it be shallow water that you could walk in?

You can get a safety floating device for your waist so that you float and you could go out with one of the guides on the boat and they will have you hold onto a floating device, like a ring,as this is what they do for small kids and non swimmers.
There's no walking around as it is the reef underneath you so if you want to move around independently you need to be able to swim some bit or wear the floaty waist device.
They are very good on board and will advise you accordingly. At the end of the day, just because you can't swim doesn't mean you can't do it. It is the barrier reef after all and I wouldn't pass it up because of that.
My daughter will be 12 year old. Can she dive? We'll be in Cairns in August. Are wet suits included?

Surrey, UK279 bidrag
All the equipment (including floats, wet suits/stinger suits, snorkel, goggles etc) you need for either snorkelling or diving will be included depending on what you have booked. Everyone was encouraged to take a buoyancy aid to avoid fatigue, so we took one in the form of a belt around your waist. My 8 year old is not yet a strong swimmer so she also had a floating ring to hold onto, in addition to her life vest whenever she felt tired and one of the guides towed her and my wife towards the best views. The guide even helped me get water out of my snorkel even though I'm a very confident swimmer. They are a great team.

They have them if you require one and they even have floaties available to make it easier for the snorkelers.
They cater for people of all level. Exceptional attention provided for those who have never entered water before or any swimming skills.
I don't think I and my children have ever experienced such care and passion from any tourist excursion ever.

It's a large boat. When we were on it there was probably only 30 people. I'm sure it could accommodate maybe 100. You should just contact them with your questions. They are an excellent company.
Hi would like to go on one of these trips and would like to know if we don't have experience diving can we still try a dive. Also the lunch you serve can you cater to dietary requirements. no gluten, no egg, and no dairy. I know what do i eat but It is do-able?

Hey Michelle I did This trip not long ago and it was my first time scuba diving. They give you like a five min Intro dive, then if you want to carry on you just pay extra at the end of the day and an experienced instructor will go underwater with you. I think When you book just tell them dietary needs and it shouldn’t be a problem - they have a chef on board who should be able to help but just give them a quick call to make sure they can provide suitable foods :)
