What a beautiful slice of paradise these guys have on their doorstep. Adam and Steph are great stewards of the environment, informative and yet made the trip fun for our family of 8 aged from 2 years to 78! Most managed a snorkel trip and the adults made it out to see one of the shipwrecks on this pristine coastline. They helped us spot humpbacked whales too! It was a special,memorable experience.
Thank you so much for sharing such a heartfelt review! We aim to create experiences that are suitable for all ages, and we are thrilled to hear that all members of your family had such a special and memorable experience with us. Spotting whales is always a highlight, and we're glad we could share that experience with you! We hope to welcome you back on board soon! Kind Regards, The Aquascene Team

It was a fantastic day, beautiful beaches to explore, plenty of activities, lovely morning tea, a lot of the Island history explained, and a fantastic boat ride
Thank you for your review! Sounds like you had a wonderful day experiencing the best that Magnetic Island has to offer. Of course, morning tea is always a favourite after exploring and participating in the water activities. The crew are a wealth of knowledge about the island, and they love sharing their knowledge with our visitors. We are thrilled that you had a great day and thank you once again.
Great day out with Kalvin and the crew. They are very knowledgeable of the area and were happy to answer all of our questions. The island itself is beautiful and the snorkelling and stand up paddle boarding was lots of fun. We saw HUGE fish and lots of coral reef.

Our crew love what they do and their passion for the Island is certainly reflected in the tour. It’s wonderful that you took advantage of the activities on offer and overall had a fun day out exploring the marine world. Thank you for taking the time to post a review, it is much appreciated.

Amazing day! We took our young kids (5 and 7) and they had a blast. Even swam with a turtle! The morning tea was yummy, but recommend taking lunch especially if you have kids. We packed chicken sandwiches in a small cooler and it worked out perfect.
Thank you for taking time to post a review of your tour with Aquascene. It sounds like you had a great day out and even swimming with our resident turtle the kids must have been stoked! Being a family business, we know what it’s like with kids so your forethought to bring extra snacks is a great idea. So happy you had an amazing day, we love Magnetic Island and hopefully you do too! Warm Regards The Aquascene Team
