Amazing! Spent a few hours on Green Island. This was good as I could practice snorkling in warm water that I could stand up in. Then we went on to the pontoon. I can't describe how beautiful it was being able to snorkle amongst the coral and fish. It was easy to get into and out of the water. I can imagine that the whole experience might not be as good if the weather was bad.

My Grandson and I did the green Island combo we had the best day ever. The outer reef was our highlight. We paid extra for the scuba do and that was amazing. Staff looked after us so well would recommend this day out highly
