Pleasant boat trip and freedom to do own snorkeling session and we saw fish snd turtles. A bit of organisation problems with change of pier and lunch pickup time not too professional.

Great day all round, glass bottom boat and Fitzroy Island, seemed to be very well organised. One problem which was resolved by the staff at the Cairns Reef Terminal was that we had purchased lunch and this hadn't been ordered by Headout. the staff at the terminal were able to organise for this to happen. Lucky we had arrived early or we may have missed out!
