We recently snorkeled with ABC out of Port Douglas. The experience was first class and fantastic. After our first dive (which was amazing), a diver experienced a health issue. The crew attended to him and the skipper (Seb) rushed back to port. The diver later recovered. ABC took the remaining divers back out to the GBR for a second dive. The guides (Callum and Sam) were quite knowledgeable and informative. I highly recommend ABC.

Amazing day spent out on the reef with my family of 4, including a 10yr and 14yr old boys. Eldest was a bit nervous and sceptical of going in the open ocean, Callum made him feel heard and catered for his nerves. We had Callum cater a personalised experience for us with him taking our group of 4 one to one. He took some excellent footage on the go pro for us and taught me the best way to free dive into the reef. There were no other boats in site and we saw many varieties including sharks! Amazing experience the family won't forget... much better than the larger commercial service we booked 6 years ago... where there was nothing to see and 300 people snorkelling in one location. Sam and Toby were also excellent! Amazing business that Jay should be proud of ❤️

Callum, Sam and Toby set the standard for organization, knowledge and fun. So many tour guides take this as an opportunity to spill their brain of every possible detail on the reef, which tends to overdo and slowdown the experience. They managed a perfect balance between intro/personalized Q&A, as well as the timing, and identifying the especially interesting corals and see life. Their small groups of 6 per guide really allows personal interaction in the water as well. Finally, the ABC license allows them to go in places larger boats cannot and makes for a greatly enhanced experience. These are elite guides and skipper who are worth it.

Sam, Toby and Callum are amazing! Not only are they smart being marine biologist and knowing how to drive a boat in the ocean, but they make it really fun. It’s a smaller group so I felt like we really got VIP treatment. I highly recommend this company and the staff. Cheers to you!

Outstanding day out! The ABC tour is in a completely different league to the large operators. A personalised, educational and super well organised day. Ten outta ten!

Wonderful reef excursion. Boat was comfortable and the small group was great. The staff was friendly and very knowledgeable about the reef and marine life. Saw a turtle, manya ray and reef sharks. Had such a good time thought about booking for another day as well but didn’t have enough time.

Really very good. Small group and with very knowledgeable staff, including marine biologists. Explained everything and knew how to find the best locations. Pointed out what we could see. We saw sharks, turtles and masses of coloured fish. We even had dolphins racing alongside the boat. An amazing day and highly recommended.

This was the most amazing trip from the moment I stepped up the gangway until the moment I left. The three guys looking after us were efficient and well qualified as well as friendly, entertaining and extremely knowledgeable. Our group of 12 was split into two and, once on the reef, each was led by one of the marine biologists who indicated anything of interest by diving down and pointing as well as giving us mini-briefings as we went along. We visited two outer reefs and had them to ourselves the whole time. What a day!

Ten out of ten!

From beginning to end we were in the great care of Captain Toby, Sam and Callum, all so full of knowledge and with great attention to fun and safety. This small group tour of two snorkelling trips, (where there were no other tourists), morning coffee and light lunch made us feel special and opened our eyes to the vast and unique beauty of the GBR. Thank you for a wonderful time! We hope to see you again in a week or so…

This ABC Great Barrier Reef trip out of Port Douglas was simply out of this world. We were on a personal boat for 12 with 3 crew two of whom actually swam with us in two small groups. The experience was nothing short of sublime. Highly recommend ABC tours if you are ever in Port Douglas. An American fellow passenger had gone out on a huge boat for 400 yesterday said all he saw was brown coral. We saw a profusion of brightly coloured coral, some sharks, two turtles and endless other beautiful fish in peaceful surrounding with no other boat even visable. The whole day was Magical. What made this tour particularly special though were the staff. Toby the skipper and Callum and Sam the driving guides (all marine biologists) were knowledgeable, helpful and just brilliant all day. I couldn’t recommend this trip enough.

Having been on many good snorkelling trips around the world over the years we hoped that this one would live up to our expectations and be the best. Let’s just say we weren’t disappointed. It was a fantastic experience exceeding what we had hoped for by a country mile. Throughout the day we were the only ones in the exclusive areas we visited. The shallow pristine reefs were fantastic and we saw an abundance of fish, friendly white tipped sharks and turtles just ambling by that we could literally reach out and touch. We’re so glad we opted to video what we saw so we could relive our experience with family and friends, keeping an abiding memory. The friendly, tentative and experienced guides (who knew their stuff being marine biologists) were brilliant giving us loads of tuition and advice. They were very knowledgeable and went out of their way to ensure we had the time of our lives. Talking to other people on our return and comparing similar trips with other operators on the same day we absolutely made the right choice. We can’t rate them highly enough thank you so much Sam and Callum and their skipper

Our experience with ABC Snorkel at the Great Barrier Reef was amazing! The small group size ensured a more intimate and personalized experience compared to larger, crowded boats. I can't praise our guides, Sam and Callum and captain, Toby, enough. Their knowledge and passion for the reef were evident from the moment we boarded. Callum and Sam are marine biologists and provided insightful information about the marine life and coral formations, enhancing our appreciation for this natural wonder. The snorkeling itself was simply breathtaking. The vibrant colors of the coral and the abundance of marine life left us in awe. We highly recommend ABC Snorkel for anyone looking to experience the Great Barrier Reef up close. Their combination of a small boat and excellent guides and captain truly made this trip unforgettable.
