Reviews

Great Barrier Reef Charter - August 2024
The trip, the crew and the boat were amazing! We cannot say enough. Captain Matt and everyone on the crew could not have been nicer and taken better care of us. They were outstanding! Chef Matt was excellent too. He was very accommodating in both time and food for all my kids – who have very diverse diets. Captain Matt and Marlin even took my kids fishing at 10:30 one night after they were up until 4:00 am moving us to a new location the night before. We cannot compliment everyone on the crew enough.
Lizard Island & Far North Queensland
Thank you for organising the viewing on board Beluga this morning. If you could please extend my gratitude to Peter, it would be much appreciated.
The yacht is amazing and she offers the ultimate getaway for every type of guests.
I was amazed at the volume she has for a 34m yacht.
Her layout is perfect for the guests and the crew to guest ratio is on point.
I would definitely recommend BELUGA with confidence to our clients
Lizard Island in Far North Queensland
The crew were all great (including the boys on the chase boat), and particular mention should go to the chef, Sammy, who worked with our dual-family needs and last-minute adjustments.
A special mention also goes to Tom, who was the dive guy: he was worth every penny for his assistance with everyone in the water/snorkelling, especially the children, for whom he created an ideal first-time snorkelling experience… teaching them facts about the sea, guiding them and generally working hard to make all water experiences fun and unintimidating.
Brittany and Ruby did a fabulous job of keeping the cabins immaculate the second we left them, and they too, were very accomodating to all our needs. The Mexican night, complete with props, sparklers and fun things for the kids, was a highlight, and something the kids really loved.
