The ATV riding was fun! We had 2 adults and 2 kids (ages 10 & 13) and our guide split us off from the rest of the group so we didn’t slow the others down but we could still enjoy the ride. She was very patient as my kids learned how to operate the ATVs and let us ride a bit longer. When you arrive at the ferry terminal they give you specific instructions to proceed to the resort desk to receive your tickets with a time to get to the ATV activity.

Before arriving on the island, it is necessary to obtain a vehicle permit through proper organization. You have two options: bring your own or hire one in Brisbane. Campers are particularly advised to opt for a 4WD due to its versatility. It’s worth noting that no vehicle recovery service or mechanic is available on the island, so it is strongly recommended to have your own recovery gear handy.

Yes, it is possible to snorkel at Tangalooma without a tour. While there are snorkeling tours (and other full-day tours) available, they are not necessary. From the resort, it’s a short 25-30 minute walk along the beach to reach the shipwrecks. Once there, you can easily swim out from the shore within 5 minutes. So, you have the freedom to explore and enjoy the snorkeling experience at your own pace.

Get to Know Carnival Splendor
It’s hard to tell which onboard space best represents Carnival Splendor — they all seem to hint at the amazing time you’re going to have. El Morocco Lounge hosts comedy shows, musical performances, karaoke and more… and wears its 1930s namesake clearly on its nameplate. The words “Royal Flush Casino” incite visions of winning, while our onboard jazz club — The Cool — simply says it all without saying a word. And Fahrenheit 555 ™ can be found not only at the height of elegant dining, but at the actual apex of the ship. If you like your fun to flow, there are options aplenty. If you list “splishing” and “splashing” among your favorite things to do, there’s Carnival WaterWorks ™ . Those into sitting and sliding are invited to try the all-new Green Lightning thrill-slide. How about floating or swimming around? Carnival Splendor has pools all over the place, including the midship pool featuring a retractable roof that makes any day a pool day. So whether you splish or splash, you’ll find hydro-excitement galore. If relaxation is your thing, Serenity Adult-Only Retreat ™ is more your place. Or if you’re looking to take relaxation to the extreme, direct your attention to the Cloud 9 Spa ™ , featuring more (and better) ways to kick back than just about anywhere else, on land or at sea. You haven’t lived until you’ve relaxed in a Thalassotherapy pool, or chilled — so to speak — in a dry heat chamber.
