This tour with Lloyd and his REAF2 is definately worth it on so many levels.
Lloyd is a great guy and wildly enthusiastic of what he is doing. We (3 Belgians) got the whole tour and we learnt alot about the sea and how important and easy it is to make a difference. Together we dropped about 2 tons or concrete into the sea and formed about 2 reefs. Of course, we wanted to see if the artificial reefs ( or Seabed Enhancement units) are worth it and spent 2 hours fishing. One hour was spent over a reef that was built earlier and one hour over an area without reefs. The difference is astnishing! Lloyd told us he catches about twice as much when he goes fishing over his reefs than elsewhere but we easily cought 10 times as much, including a 7kg Snapper!
So all that can be said about this trip is: Definately try it out! You'll have a great time and learn alot !
Thank you Lloyd,
Clemens
