Awesome experience today with Whale Watching. Journey out may have been a little choppy but staff were brilliant. Stunning boat with great facilities and professional and friendly crew. Lots of whales seen breeching and tail slapping, very close to the boat. Morning tea and lunch provided, with a small kiosk style cafe and gift sales area. A smooth cruise back afterwards. Would highly recommend and certainly return for another trip.

The experience was very much full of knowledgeable about the the marine life. All staff were friendly and helpful.
I only have one suggestion; there are three groups, doing separate tour guides and so on. The last group that had lunch, they were not much left to eat. 🤔

You’ll learn the role each ingredient plays in image creation, plus you’ll have quality time above and below the water, immersed in nature, applying your skills under Darren’s expert guidance.

Brown coral is healthy coral! These hard corals are building blocks of the reef and we are lucky to have them dominate the #SouthernGreatBarrierReef 🐠
The reason for the golden-brown colour is from the algae, called zooxanthallae, that live within their tissues.
Coral polyps and zooxanthellae have a symbiotic, win-win relationship to live together. In return for a safe home to live in, zooxanthellae harnesses energy from the sun’s rays and gives the polyp enough energy to survive, grow, and build the hard reef structures we love to admire. If you look closely, you can see the blue tips which is new growth!
