Must do day trip!
This was a wonderful day trip that we did. Only a 20 minute ride to get to the marina from Brisbane CBD. It was a spontaneous thing we wanted to do and this company was the only one available that I could find to book the day of (literally 2 hours before departure) - thanks for that! Shoutout to the captain and all the crew that was there on Sept 20th. It was a beautiful day so the ride there and back was very smooth. Everything was so well organized from the safety checks, getting grouped up, getting the gear we needed, and getting us to the island. Everyone was super friendly and helpful and the food buffet was good! The guided snorkel around the wrecks was fun - we were able to spot a shark and turtle along with so many fish and the visibility was good. We were able to spot starfish when we had our time on the beach. On the way back we were also able to see a dugong and dolphins! It was overall a great experience and I highly recommend doing this trip with this company. Thanks again!
Response from the operator: Thank you for such a fantastic review, Melissa! It’s wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed your day with us, from the smooth journey and snorkelling adventure to the wildlife encounters along the way. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with the captain and crew. We’re especially glad our team could make everything feel easy and enjoyable, even with such a last-minute booking. We hope to have you back onboard for another adventure in the future.

Why this scores 79
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Brisbane.
How much does Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane cost?
+
Prices start at $173 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Brisbane usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Brisbane is not rushed.
Is Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 382 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Brisbane, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane?
+
Around 134 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Brisbane can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Brisbane and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Moreton Island & Tangalooma Wrecks Snorkel Cruise - Brisbane start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Brisbane within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Brisbane?
+
On Outty we rank every Brisbane experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include North Stradbroke Island WILDLIFE Adventure Tour from Brisbane, Australia Zoo Day Trip from Brisbane, Ultimate Brisbane Walking Tour (Small-Group, Drink Included). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Brisbane?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Brisbane?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
