Passions of Paradise

Passion of paradise was phenomenal! There are no other words to describe them but perfection! The crew was absolutely amazing, attentive, informative, knowledgeable, and any other words you could use to describe something so amazing! Shout out to Justin our wonderful dive instructor! He was super sweet, informative, passionate, and fun to be around! He truly made this experience the best part of our trip! Also shout out to Andi! She was an amazing leader for the boat! Sweet, attentive, and made it her mission to get to speak to everyone! She made this trip feel like family! We went on this trip as a part of our honeymoon and she made a little special celebration just for us, when she didn’t need too! She made it a memory we will never forget! Justin and Andi were the best! And the other crew members were phenomenal as well!

I had an amazing experience with Passions of Paradise and honestly can’t thank the crew enough. I didn’t get the chance to ask for their names, but every single member of the team was incredibly kind, supportive, and professional. What stood out the most was how caring they were, especially when I got seasick. They went out of their way to help me, providing everything I needed and even offering some things without charging me. That level of care really made a difference and shows how much they genuinely look after their guests. The locations we visited were absolutely beautiful—truly unforgettable. I also really appreciated their strong focus on safety. The crew consistently checked on everyone and made sure to confirm passengers’ names multiple times throughout the trip. It might seem like a small detail, but it shows how seriously they take safety. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend Passions of Paradise to anyone visiting Cairns. Great crew, great service, and an unforgettable day.

Absolutely amazing experience! I went to the Great Barrier Reef a couple of days ago with Passions, and it was incredible from start to finish. It was my very first dive, and I was quite nervous at the beginning, but the instructor was so patient, supportive, and reassuring that I quickly felt calm and able to fully enjoy the experience. She was absolutely fantastic and made my first dive unforgettable! The entire crew was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the catering was excellent. Compared to other boats I’ve been on, this one had a smaller number of guests, which made the whole experience feel much more personal, relaxed, and enjoyable. It truly makes a difference! I would 100% recommend this trip to anyone — such a special and memorable day!

This is by far one of the greatest highlight of my life. Passions of paradise made a dream come true. Some facts about our experience. Me and my wife are both not a very good swimmer. And we were very nervous about snorkeling. We booked the eco tour experience. Lea was our guide who is also marine biologist. She gave us a talk about the reef and hand held and pulled a buoy the entire reef for 1 hr at one location and 1 hr at another location. This is some vip experience and we are so glad and so happy that we got Lea as our guide and we chose passions of paradise. Joanne was also very helpful to reschedule our date as there was a cyclone that hit northern QLD and Joanne kindly rescheduled us on a better day. Passions of paradise is also one of the last locally owned and operated business. We will definitely be back and book with them again.
