    _Will Tauck order a full Face Snorkel Mask if I need one?? I read you can use them if you ae a nose breather

    Probably not. The masks provided by the reef platform company are standard snorkel masks, not full face masks. Call Tauck to get a definitive answer.

    We did a helicopter ride. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS AND EXHILARATING!! If you sit in the front as I did, you have a glass floor where you can see everything up close. If you sit in the back, like my white knuckle husband, you can see everything in the safety of the backseat :smiley: It really was beautiful. This was several years ago, so I'm not sure, but I think it must have been a part of the Tauck tour then??? If not, then we did it on our own. Highly recommend this.

    The helicopter ride was a sign-up option once on the platform. There was a separate cost. It lasted about 10 minutes. A great way to see the vastness of the reef. Weather was nice, views were beautiful.

    Your right Lotus girl. My 10 minutes was not long enough for me, and it was 10 minutes too long for my husband !! :wink::wink:
