Perfect Snorkeling trip

The trip started according to the schedule. We were briefed on safety procedure and plan for snorkel before reaching the GBR, we were served coffee,Tea and Cookies before starting the trip.I ordered vegan food and got a fantastic lunch served with protein , green veggie salad, tofu and pumpkin.Also we were served fresh fruits. The snorkeling was planned @2 reef locations, which went well and we were given details of the trip by the fantastic crew. We were also given eco friendly history about how the original land owners fished and hunted the GBR. Overall would give A+ rating Please consider this team vs a bigger vessel where you will receive less attention.
