Your Experience

Your experience

Two reef destinations in one day

If you're short on time but want the full Great Barrier Reef experience, this cruise is the perfect solution. Departing from Cairns, you’ll explore two wildly different parts of the reef—each offering unique ways to connect with nature above and below the surface.

What to expect

Your day begins with a scenic cruise to Fitzroy Island, a postcard-perfect escape with rainforest-cloaked hills, hidden beaches, and coral reefs right off the shore. You’ll have time to explore the island’s walking trails, unwind on Nudey Beach, or snorkel the calm waters of Welcome Bay.

Next, head to the Moore Reef Pontoon, your launchpad for outer reef adventure. Here, everything is set up for effortless marine discovery—just step into the water for guided snorkeling, or board the semi-submersible or glass-bottom boat for front-row views of the coral without getting wet. Kids will love the ocean pool and epic waterslide; adults can kick back in the sundeck lounges or visit the underwater observatory for a peek at life below the waves.

Midday, refuel with a premium buffet lunch, then choose your next adventure: take a marine biologist-led Snorkel Safari, try the Seawalker helmet dive for a unique underwater stroll, or join a Turtle Rehab Centre talk to learn how conservationists are caring for injured sea turtles.

Upgrades

Want to dive a little deeper? You can elevate your experience with:

  • Snorkel Safari – Join a marine naturalist on a guided snorkel session to discover harder-to-reach coral gardens and learn about marine life as you go.

  • Seawalker Helmet Dive – Walk the ocean floor without needing a dive certification. A bucket-list-worthy way to meet the reef up close.

  • Turtle Rehabilitation Centre Talk – Learn about local conservation efforts during an optional presentation led by caretakers and marine experts.
