“The staff, boat, and equipment was amazing. Tangalooma is a great place with lots to do. I went on the shipwreck snorkel tour. My only comment is that it was shorter than I had hoped for. This is probably to account for all levels of fitness and ages. That being said, amazing staff, amazing experience, amazing value for cost. Would highly recommend.”

“These activities were actually so interesting and attracted me! Generally, I was enjoyed with my family most of time! However, the activity of dolphin feeding was too short and rushed and we got to get changed our wet body immediately just after dolphin fed! As the ferry is going to depart @7pm and we did not managed to get everything done in such short time, especially with kids. Furthermore, if the activity of dolphin feed were started late!”
