Loved this, the kayaking was smooth and easy, and the snorkeling spot had an amazing variety of fish. Great value for money
Thank you for the awesome review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the smooth kayaking, snorkeling, and all the marine life on our Morning Kayak & Snorkel Adventure. Great to hear you felt it was great value for money, and we’d love to have you back again for another adventure soon 😊 Cheers, Australian Kayaking Adventures
It was great experience. It was real fun and something adventurous. Me and my partner had good time.
Wonderful morning with laughs while you learn about the ecosystem of the waters near Wave Break Island with the possibility of seeing a pod of dolphins from your kayak.
Great experience and the weather was just perfect. Couldn’t see much during the snorkeling due so water conditions but would recommend
Pablo was a great guide. Explained everything and was very knowledgeable and friendly. Would do it again
Definitely recommend this activity. I thought it was a great price for all that we did. Nelson our guide was very friendly and was very attentive to our kayaking, making sure everyone was safe. Perfect time amount, not too long of an activity. The free photos were amazing and unexpected! Easy enough location to meet at and as a solo attendee, I didn’t feel awkward at all. Next time I come to Gold Coast I am definitely doing this again!
Although I enjoyed the time kayaking, there was nothing that stood out about this kayak adventure. Snorkeling was just ok. Breakfast offered was cold cereal and milk.
Really enjoyed ourselves. The meeting point was easy to find. Our tour guides were friendly and helpful and made us feel welcomed. They provided us with our snorkeling gear, life jacket, kayak, and also a wet bag for our belongings that we wanted to take with us. You have the opportunity to leave stuff on the bus if you would rather not bring it with you. I recommend wearing sunscreen even at 7:30 in the morning, as we ended up with a little sunburn. Right off the beach, we were greeted with the view of a dolphin. No issues with kayaking to the island, but it was a little more work as I was the only one able to paddle since my daughter was too young to assist. Once we reached the shore, it was about a 5 to 10 minute walk, over to the other side, bring some shoes as there are branches sticking out of the sand. In the end, we didn't end off snorkeling as my daughter didn't like the mask, but we got to feed the fish and that was an entirely unique experience as you could feel them swim by and brush against your legs. The others in our group saw different fish while out snorkeling. Please keep in mind, the water is darker and not as clear as it would be if you were snorkeling closer to the Great Barrier Reef or Fiji. They provided us with a light breakfast of cereal and biscuits, which was great as I have been on other tours and nothing was included, especially at this price. We also got to see a mother duck with her ducklings out and about. On the way back, the wind picked up a little, but it was still easy to get back and there was clear direction on which way to go. Had a great time and really recommend this tour.
Great experience the guide charismatic and entertaining. Unfortunately the price of photos was $40 , to expensive and unable to view as water mark all over them
Hi, Karen, Thank you for your 5 star review. The photos are only $20. Not sure where it says $40. But I will check.
Totally enjoyed the whole tour. Our guide was great and really friendly. Kayaking was so much fun over calm waters and we really loved snorkeling amongst some pretty amazing and colourful fish. It was also just the right length of time at 2 - 2.5 hours. 100% recommend this tour to everyone. Jo D.
