The company was great. Flexible for us to change our departure time. Boats to and from the island was great. Glass bottom boat was good. Snorkeling was not good for w anyone who had ever snorkeled before. Not many fish in the snorkeling area. We should’ve paid extra to go to the reef.

We travelled via Great Adventures catarmaran to Green Island March 2023. We had no problems finding a seat and the ride was smooth and easy. There were a lot of staff on board to book additional tours, get maps etc and I found them very easy to talk to. Obviously if you go in peak season seats will be hard to find, but the ride is easy enough you don't mind being outside or standing. We really enjoyed the glass bottom boat tour from Great Adventures our skipper provided us a lot of interesting info. The Green Island resort I didn't particularly like as it was dirty and rundown but this is not the fault of Great Adventures company. We are very experienced snorkellers and really enjoyed our day. We were lucky enough to see at least 10 turtles and had the joy of two turtles following and swimming along side us. Tip for snorkellers, walk out the jetty and enter the water from the boat platforms. Gets you into deep water quickly. Another tip swim under the jetty, massive schools of huge fish. Keep an eye out for reef sharks, they are beautiful. All in all we had a great day and were very happy that we took the Great Adventures tour.

Green Island is beautiful. We did the glass bottom boat and snorkeling- both were great and well organised. I gave 4 stars not 5 because the island was very hot and it was hard to escape the heat- even the island pool was very warm.
