The location was magical such a joy to see fish in their beautiful under water garden. The tour guide was a gem! So attentive and patient with us, the experience was wonderful but our guide Carlos made it even better! Highly recommend this experience.

Itinerary
Many people are surprised to discover that Sydney is a phenomenal snorkeling destination. In this fun and unforgettable private tour you will be guided over kelp forests and rugged reefs, to spot some of 600 species of fish that call Sydney’s waters home. Most of your tour time will be spent in the water watching the playful blue gropers, graceful cuttlefish, schools of colorful mado and many other marine life that thrive in the Bronte-Coogee Aquatic Reserve. Your certified local guide will lead you over well crafted routes based on marine activity over the preceding days. They will point out fascinating marine life, teach you about it and take photos to capture the highlights of your adventure. Once your booking is confirmed, we will work with you to tailor the tour to your or your group’s preferences and swimming ability, providing a flexible and personal experience. After the snorkelling tour, you’ll have time to unwind at Clovelly Beach, explore the picturesque Bondi to Coogee Coastal Walk, or enjoy a meal or coffee at nearby spots. Your local guide will be happy to offer recommendations. If conditions are unsafe at Clovelly, the tour may run at lovely Little Bay Beach.

Very cool snorkel spot outside Sydney to see some great marine life. One on one tour with Carlos who was great! Lots of photos and videos included in the tour as well.
It was absolutely amazing and we were mind blown by how incredible the sealife looked
Absolutely amazing experience ! We were lucky enough to see an octopus, sting rays, a shark and more than one blue groper fish. Our guide Dina (hopefully I have spelt that right) went above and beyond and was able to tell us lots of cool facts about the aquatic life we saw. She also took some fantastic videos which were our favourite holiday souvenir. We highly recommend this experience to get up close to the sea life !
I could not have asked for a better first time snorkelling. he guide was amazing. She was very sweet and made sure everyone had a good time and was accommodated. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to have a fun experience seeing some of the marine life in Sydney.
Dina was great! She was patient and a pleasure to work with. We saw almost all of the fish she showed us on the wall before going. Highly recommend!
We had a lovely snorkel with Dina in early January! Jake and Pipa were super great communicators, letting us know the day before the tour that the area and time we originally booked to snorkel was going to be low visibility and the wind would make the water very choppy. We were also a little worried about sharks with all the attacks and beaches being shut down, but Dina made sure we were snorkeling in a cove with a natural rock wall that prevented large predators from getting in, which made me feel much better about the water. The new location (little bay) they set us up for was wonderful and we saw so many fish and wildlife, Dina even got some great shots of the manta ray! She was helpful and kind, giving us some free diving tips and lots of education on local fish populations. Would also highly recommend getting the wetsuit as even in the summer the water can be cold. With the wetsuit we were perfectly temperature acclimated. Would highly recommend this tour!!!
It was really good! We went to Little Bay due to weather/currents and there was clear communication throughout. The guide was super nice and knowledgeable. We saw a stingray, a pufferfish and lots of pretty colourful fishies. Would highly recommend!
We booked this reservation at the last minute because our trip to the Great Barrier Reef was cancelled due to a tropical storm rolling in. Pipa was great and knew a lot of information about the marine life. She was very kind and friendly. She even helped one of my family members learn how to swim and help him get more comfortable in the water. She took some pictures and videos of us and the wildlife. It was a wonderful experience and so much fun! Expectations were definitely met and exceeded :)
It was such an amazing experience. Our tour guide Dina was absolutely terrific, because of her, we were well informed and had such a joyous first experience. It was our first time participating in the activity, the fish and underwater swim was an experience I hope to do again.
With Dina as our tour guide, me and my family were able to have an experience that exceeded our expectations. We saw unbelievable views and were able to have a beautiful time. Again, thanks to Dina who was so polite and friendly for giving us this experience 🙏
jake was very responsive from the start that i send an email inquiry. carlos, our guide on the day of the snorkel, was also very attentive esp. to my daughter who was a first timer snorkeller. he made sure we were comfortable in our gears before going to the water. i was happy my daughter felt confident woth carlos during the snorkel. we loves the whole experience. we snorke at clovelly beach. i would love to do it again with this company but hopefully in Little Bay next time 😃
We had a great experience and Carlos was awesome. He knew the area very well and was able to dive down and find us all sorts of things we would have missed on our own. The water was rough so he found us a better sheltered bay so we were able to get the full experience. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, even beginners when visiting Sydney.
I went snorkeling with my adult children, and we had a great time! Dana was so knowledgeable and personable. We really enjoyed our experience with her.
This was our first-ever ocean snorkelling experience, and it was absolutely amazing. The snorkelling coach was incredibly kind, patient, and experienced, guiding us step by step and helping us overcome our initial fear in the water. What made the experience even more special was that it helped my 7-year-old child fall in love with snorkelling. The coach was wonderful with kids, making everything feel safe, fun, and encouraging. The underwater world was truly breathtaking — so many beautiful marine creatures that we had never seen before. It was an unforgettable and eye-opening experience, far beyond our expectations. Highly recommended for families and anyone trying snorkelling for the first time!
The guide was late to our private tour but was nice and attentive. The weather the day we went was windy and the waters were extremely choppy. We tried our best but it felt unsafe for beginner snorkelers, so we ended our private tour early. The guide did offer to take us to another location later that day but we declined. This isn’t a reflection on the company overall (obviously they can’t control the weather). I just want to share our experience so beginners know what to expect on windy days.
My solo snorkeling tour was spectacular thanks to Isaac. I am a little nervous (to say the least) in the water but he put me at ease right away. First, warm greeting and super helpful gear check: he made sure I was fully comfortable. During snorkeling he kept checking on my comfort level which made my experience truly memorable. Thank you, Isaac, for your genuine care.
isaac was an amazing, wonderful guide. he was encouraging and friendly. super friendly and straightforward experience🩷
It was really fun! Saw a big blue grouper and several other fish! Issac was of great help getting us suited up and guiding us around the place!
The instructor really nice, Issac, gear is nice as well, i see a lot of fish, have some problems with the wave to strong, but Issac help me a lot
Saw many great fishes, thanks to Isaac. He was kind and ensure that everyone was safe and adaptable to the ocean throughout
This was an amazing experience and highly recommend it to others. Pipa was so patient and helpful with us for our first ocean snorkeling adventure. Our photos and videos will be cherished forever.
Absolutely wonderful private snorkel. Due to expected rough conditions at the original location, the snorkeling at Little Bay was amazing. Communication about the change was complete and very clear. Pippa was a great guide and all equipment was perfect.
Pipa gave us a wonderful snorkeling experience! It was our first time and she was both patient and very nice! Pipa was great to my 12 year old son too!
Great way to start my trip in Sydney. I had a great time. The guide was friendly and knew so much about the fish and marine life. Thick wetsuits helped me keep warm the whole time. Best snorkeling I’ve done.
Great to spend time in the water. I really enjoy spending time underwater and Pipa gave me a weight belt so that I could do some skin diving. Very fun. Great way to see lots of fish
Felt like a real explorer! The guide took us to this stunning spot, and we saw so much marine life. Ended up spending a lot of the day at the beach after the tour. Perfect way to spend the day.
We were all newbies, but Mia was cheerful and patient. My daughters were moved by Mia's kindness. I was worried about the coldness of the water in winter, but the good weather made it almost unnoticeable. The water was clear and many fish were seen. It was a wonderful experience that will last a lifetime.
I was trying to snorkle at the Great Berry River, but I couldn't because of the storm. I had to snorkel in Sydney to get ashful and had a wonderful experience with Jake, Isaac's friendly guidance and help. The Clover Valley, a place to snorkel, had a lot of people enjoying swimming and a lot of fish that looked as amazing as he did. For travellers looking forward to great snorkelling, I highly recommend this item!
