Great morning out on the water with Elijah. Beautiful weather, good pace and a great guide made for a wonderful experience. Everyone who worked there was lovely and informative. Thanks for a fantastic day - we'll have to head back out for the snorkelling before we leave!

Good service, reasonable prices and time limit for bike hire -$35 for (3) hours.
Bikes were in pretty good condition except for one of our seats that swiveled, probably a good idea for the bikes to be checked at the end of each day but otherwise really good venue hire & lovely staff - special shout out to Ally.

Steph, Cam and Noah were fantastic, well organised and knowledgeable. Port Phillip bay was beautiful with great company. If I could we’d give 100 stars. Great first sea Kayaking experience for two of the family and we’ll be back to try out the ebikes in our next trip.

We had a chaotic experience with bike hire at Point Nepean National Park. We had rescheduled it from Sunday to Tuesday due to poor weather, and the woman on the phone had advised we could pick the bikes up from the visitor centre at 11am. 11am came and went so we gave them a call, and it turns out they don’t do bike pickups there on Tuesdays. The woman was really decent about it and drove the bikes to us. I’d expected that we’d be given assistance with adjusting the bikes but the woman left immediately. We found that the bikes weren’t in great condition and one of the seats couldn’t be

Fantastic open water diver course with Chad. I was a bit nervous going in but talked us through it and left feeling fantastic. Great dive spots as part of the course. Loved it!

Diving at Blairgowrie pier with Chad from Bayplay yesterday was fantastic. He was an awesome guide and even sent us some video footage of our experience. He made the process easy and straightforward and was very patient getting us comfortable in the water again after not diving for 3 years. Highly recommend them.

MR DONALD RICHARD HAS REALLY HELPED ME IN TRADING AND MAKING A LOT OF MONEY FOR THE SUPPORT OF MY BUSINESS, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM TO EVERYONE IN THIS PAGE TO ALSO GET ADVISE FROM HIM ON HOW TO MAKE MONEY ON FOREX TRADING. Big thanks to Mr Donald Richard one of the best binary option manager who has the best strategy and signals that can help you… win every time you trade before meeting him I was scammed several times and I lost $20,000 to 2 different managers who claims they are real but turn into monsters the moment I fund my trading account but today I'm so grateful to Mr Donald Richard

We went on a second complementary sail because the first time the weather was not great. Today was still a bit chilly but not too much wind so we sailed on the motor. A big group went to snorkel with the seals and they said it was awesome but cold. The crew was wonderfully and we had a great time.

My daughter and I had the most incredible experience scuba diving with Bayplay today! Our instructor Jeremy was so patient and informative.... couldn't speak highly enough. I was SO anxious about scuba diving,… but Jeremy put me at ease and I absolutely LOVED the whole experience! We felt even more blessed to see a pregnant seahorse, as well as many stingrays, squid and gorgeous fish. Thank you!!! We'd highly recommend you to everyone 👌

We loved being out on the catamaran and snorkelling in the clear waters near chinamans hat. The fur seals were abundant and curious. Awesome to see them so close by. Thanks Captain Michael , Rowan and Bo. We highly recommend the trip.

Thank you for the amazing experience. Nick was a great guide & instructor during our snorkeling expedition. My 10 yr d was freezing in the waters but yet he managed to calm him down and ensure he catches a few glimpse of the the sting ray & some sea dragons before encouraging him up to the pier. The tour lasted about an hour or so but he constantly check on my boy sitting alone on the pier ensuring he is alright.
Definitely will be back!

Its an experience to have in a lifetime. We were two families and seeing the kids enjoy was equally delighting. I would always recommend it to others.
