Extremely professional and well run trip. We enjoyed our time at Whitehaven beach, it was more than enough time there. The trip was scenic, and took about seven hours because of the wet weather. Morning tea was provided, as well as stinger suits.

Very professional, helpful and knowledgeable crews. The trip was the main highlight of our visit. Highly recommend everyone. The afternoon tea buffet was amazing.
