Great boat, great crew and perfect location! Lots to see snorkelling with sea lions, tons of fish and coral. Thanks for a great trip! Be back next season :))

The crew were great at making everyone feel safe and relaxed. The actual trip itself was amazing with dolphins, sea lions and loads of fish. Was just exactly what we needed.

I took all my staff out for a belated xmas party on Sunday. The day was perfect, weather to water were on point. The staff were great and made the day one to remember. We all thoroughly enjoyed the day and would definitely recommend to jump out of your comfort zone and enjoy this experience.

This was a fantastic activity that was even better than expected. They were quite accommodating by running the tour even though we were below the normal minimum number of participants. The boat is very comfortable with lots of amenities. We cruised to an island where sea lions bask on the beach and snorkeled around a coral reef just off the island, seeing many different fish and ocean vegetation. Our guide during the snorkeling was great, and they were prepared for many levels of capability. After snorkeling we had a delicious snack of fresh fruits and non-alcoholic beverages. Then we were able to swim off the boat as desired and various water toys were available for use. A relaxing sail took us back toward the meeting point but we were given the opportunity to ride on the "tow net" which was fun. We then anchored for a while for more swimming and jumping/diving off the side of the boat. Too soon our time was up and we went back to port. I left a valuable onboard, and the company/crew were very responsive and accommodating in making arrangements for me to retrieve the towel. Thank you for a great trip!

The trip was very well organized, and the various stops allowed for abundant playtime in the beautiful water. My kids loved kayaking and we saw lots of fish whilst snorkeling. The lunch was plentiful and tasty. The crew were very friendly and efficient, and they helped us all to have a great day out.

Could not resist getting in the water from the boat! A small cruise to a handy snorkel location. Friendly staff. Good fins and mask supplied. 30 minutes roaming the ocean. Fruit and cuppa back on board. Then get on the drag net for the trip back.

Lovely knowledgeable staff, excellent experience would definitely do this again. Swimming with sea lions was amazing

It was a fantastic experience! Swimming with sea lions was incredible! The short sailing trip allowed us to visit the island too, and the crew was super friendly.

Fantastic day out with a great crew. We were taken to the most beautiful location to snorkel. Weather allowed for sailing with the kids even able to help bring in the sail. So much fun !!

Fantastic. A must do experience. Equipment was great. Snorkelling was amazing and Jules/Anuska were very welcoming. The sailing at the end was perfect way to finish.

Cracking afternoon out on the water with the super friendly crew of Charter 1. Kids were invited to join in on raising/lowering the sails, as well as joining Captain Jules as he steered us home. Guided snorkelling was aaahmazing and a highlight of our family holiday. 8yo was easily able to keep up on the guided tour and loved the experience (frothing to go again). Plenty of marine life to view - an abundance of fish, sea lions, cheeky stingray, coral galore. Cargo net on the way back to the jetty capped off a perfect day. Would highly recommend to anyone! Thanks so much for having us!

We are a family who have been sailing for many years, but do not often get the opportunity to sail as a family together. This was a wonderful experience and we all really enjoyed the experience.

I appreciated the clear communication right from the booking. We had to be put on another day to originally booked and Jules was very accommodating. Lovely snorkel catering for all levels and made everyone feel included and safe. Highly recommend!! thanks crew and Jules we loved it!!

Great experience. Awesome snorkeling. Also provided ideas on other places to snorkel around Rotto which were fabulous.

We scored a perfect evening for it, although the Skipper said he would have preferred a little bit more breeze... The crew were very cheerful and the boat was perfect, we also enjoyed a little bit of sightseeing around Fishing Boat Harbour before disembarking
