Great experience

Published on Nov, 2024

The crew were amazing, friendly and informative. Morning tea was good and they supplied water. Would recommend taking some snacks though. The tour itself was phenomenal, the boat is comfortable and half a day is perfect. The snorkelling was so good, we saw lots of sea life and coral. We would highly recommend.

Thank you!

The views were actually amazing and Adam was so knowledgeable! We had the best afternoon. Thanks for a great experience.

Beautiful, Interesting, and Relaxing must-do tour

Published on Oct, 2024

A wonderful tour all around. Easy to book and to get to, very relaxing and very nice with the ocean breeze. Our guide Adam is so friendly and knowledgeable, having grown up on the island and still living there, so he has his own personal experience and family history to add to the information he gives about the island. He also very obviously loves the SS City of Adelaide, the star shipwreck on this tour, and you can tell from the way he shares her story and points out her features. And she is a very beautiful wreck site; the most interesting wreck I’ve ever seen. I’d personally call this tour a must-do if you’re on Magnetic Island for any amount of time.

A must do

Adam was a fantastic host giving us great historical insights into Magnetic Islands fascinating past. The time spent at sunset with the SS City of Adelaide was unforgettable.

Wonderful whale watching wayfaring

Published on Aug, 2024

This was an unbelievable experience ! The staff held true on their promise to se whales, we saw them for about 80 percent for the time on board, quite close up, with cubs and all, putting on a show for us. Then some dolphins decided to add to the spectacular show. We had a nice dip in the water around Radical Bay and played with some stand-up paddle boards. The afternoon tea was great with lots of variety, and we arrived back in time for the Townsvillians to catch their ferry back to the mainland. I can highly recommend this tour, and congratulations to aquascene for making it all happen.
