Great Barrier Reef Tour from Cairns with Cruise, Snorkel & Scuba Dive!

Savour the breathtaking beauty of the largest coral reef system in the world, the Great Barrier Reef, on this unforgettable full day tour that takes you diving, snorkelling as well as cruising on a contemporary and sped-up 30-meter maxi catamaran. Comprising the tour of two destinations in a single day, this is an award-winning way of exploring the incredible ecosystem of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The day begins with hopping on-board our catamaran and sailing out into the ethereal Coral Reef for a taste of this incredible place. With 27 gorgeous locations to choose from, such as Flynn - Little Tracey, Norman Reef - Shark Mountain, Hastings Reef - Pirates Cove, and more, our trails are constantly treating you to something new as our itineraries change each day with weather conditions, taking you to the best diving and snorkelling spots.

While relaxing with your morning cuppa, our experienced crew will regale you with all the fascinating knowledge of this priceless marine ecosystem, before arriving at our first beautiful outer reef location. A comprehensive snorkelling training and briefing session is included so you have zero worries of being a pro. You can also, however, go for a certified dive, if you have previous experience with our complimentary guided dive. Surrender yourself to surreal underwater life, as you are surrounded by a host of marine creatures and an array of fish. You can even hire one of our underwater cameras for those ‘Instagram goals’ selfies with turtles or the vibrantly coloured reefs. 

Back from your first round of scuba, a sumptuous tropical buffet lunch waits for you aboard. Dig into all the deliciousness while getting ready for our second destination. Marvel at the stunning variation in the coral types, species of marine life and fishes as you head down into the water again (this one is not included in the tour price but you can purchase the second dive session on-board). It’s truly magical sight to behold as you witness an almost otherworldly paradigm of life below the surface of the water, in all shapes, sizes and colours - making up some of the most elusive and exquisite forms of life that inhabit the planet’s oceans. 

Once you return, it would be time to put your feet up and relax as we hoist the sails and indulge you in some afternoon tea or a drink from our bar. Rejuvenate yourself, just the way you want, on our return journey to Cairns, either lazing around on our sundeck or joining our immersive marine life presentation from our Eco Certified crew on board.
