I came up from Melbourne with my wife and our three children aged 10, 12 & 14.The crew on Ocean Free made us all feel welcome and at ease that my wife asked if they were the owner operators as they all worked in well together like a Swiss watch. Good staff is hard to find so to the owners \\\" hang on to these boys\\\". Thanks for the best time ever.

Of the time we had in Cairns this was the most enjoyable that we had. We had a wonderful day on the sailing boat and the crew looked after us very well. Good food, good information, great area to snorkel, very relaxing.

The most personalised and enjoyable day we had!! The staff on the Ocean Free were so friendly they made you feel like you had known them forever. Lunch was satisfying and the snorkelling and diving ticked the boxes of swimming with sharks/turtles. Amazing what the reef lacked the fish made up for! Would definitely do this again!!

I would like to thank the guys for a truly memorable day for myself and my husband. They were a wealth of knowledge regarding fish and diving with lots of stories about personal experiences. Was the best cruise I have ever been on and the fact that its a small boat means its more personal - much better than one of those big boats with over 50 people. loved it and will do it again for sure!!

We had such a fab time!Thank you so much for all your help with our holiday!
I'd never been on a sailing boat and I was quite nervous and seriously considering if we should do another tour.The crew were excellent and so much fun, they definitely made the experience something to remember. It was a very long day and I was exhausted at the end, but I'm proud of myself that I went out on the sailing boat in the end and had a go at snorkling on the reef.Amazing.
Jo, your help with all our holiday plans really made the experience very stressless.We felt that we were in very capable hands. Thanks again for the last minute help you gave us with changing our tour dates, we know you stayed back and we really appreciate the assistance you gave us. Just wanted to add also, how hard all the tour guides work, driving us around, sharing loads of info, preparing morning tea, lunch etc.They were always cheerful and there to help!! I really admired them and their positive attitudes in showing people around beautiful Cairns.Thank you!Emma & Chris Reeve
