Particularly appreciate the diving course, run by the certifiably mad but knowledgable sex maniac Jason. Everyone seemed to have fun, and many even showed up for the drinking session after to continue the mood. A good bunch, professional and competent in the water. Recommend the cruise, and even more the diving course.

Got pick up by old grumpy bus driver who also smelt like ashtray. Then I was taken to a small boat full with people, not even as many seats for everybody and no room to move. It was jelly fish season we were told to wear a suit to not get stung but mine had holes in a shoulders and... More

Crew was fantastic full of energy ad entertaining. Food was yummy and plenty of it. They took us to Whitehaven beach for a hour or so then took us over to go scuba diving. Highly recommend this your for a grey day out!

We had a great day, great crew and a good group of people to share the day with. We were lucky enough to pick a day with not too many people on board so the whole trip was very comfortable. It was such a great experience and we felt that we had enough time to enjoy the two stops that... More

Nothing is too much for the crew of the Mantaray. They can cater for all, from those nervous of water, snorkelers and to the seasoned Scuba diver. It not just the sea however, they also give you an inside into the Australia coastal bush and its shoreline. For those new to Australia the trip is a must.

Mantaray is not the biggest or the fanciest boat on the sea, but the crew Jason, woody, Frazer, Enya and the skipper Mike love their job. They are high energy, enthusiastic down to earth and go out their way to make sure you have a truly authentic Australian experience. Highly recommended !

There was not nearly enough time allocated to Whitehaven Beach. Once we landed and did the walk down to the beach, we were there for just a little over an hour and most of the time was devoted to snorkeling. With respect to snorkeling, there were loads of jelly fish in both spots chosen. I understand that there is nothing... More

Despite not having great weather we had a lovely day aboard the mantaray. The day trip included a visit to Whitehaven beach and a walk up to the view point. Absolutely stunning beach, probably the most beautiful ive ever seen. in the afternoon There was also a choice for scuba or snorkelling at the inner reef. We chose to do... More

Talk about patient and affable...I was surprised my instructor wasn't pulling his hair out, on my fourth attempt at a basic scuba exercise! But he stuck with it (and with me) and when I got it right, I felt on top of the world! When I was sea sick, the crew were kind and very helpful. Wonderful day, clear and... More
