Snorkelling, Goat Island Marine Reserve


Sea life has been fully protected at Goat Island Marine Reserve since 1975, so the fish aren’t afraid of humans. They’ll swim right up to you, and might even try to nibble your fingers. You’ll be sharing the water with trophy-sized snapper, cheeky blue cod, red moki and a multitude of other species.
