Be mesmerised by one of the seven wonders of the world, the Great Barrier Reef.

A selection of coral gardens, coral sponges and molluscs, rays and sea turtles can be found.

- You will travel with a small group of people
- You will have 4.5 hours to explore the Great Barrier Reef

Your adventure begins together in the morning where you will board a custom-built catamaran. You will travel with a small group of people which creates an intimate journey and an easy way to make some new travel friends. You will then set sail to a protected coral cay, Mackay or Undine Reef.
Once the vessel reaches a moor, you can explore this wondrous environment. You will have four and a half hours to get acquainted - snorkel, swim or get sun-kissed on the deck. Admire the world undersea from a different angle in the glass-bottom boat.
There is a marine biologist on board to answer any questions you have about this unique place. And as part of the trip, you will be served a tropical buffet lunch which includes fresh prawns. At approximately 5 pm, you will be back in Port Douglas. A one day adventure, a lifetime of memories.
