Your day begins as you board the boat at Marlin Wharf. The ultra modern 29 meter catamaran will be your base for the day. Throughout the day you'll visit three different locations which may include Thetford, Milln and Flynn Reef. Each stop showcases a different aspect of the beautiful Great Barrier Reef. At each site you have the choice to snorkel, dive or a combination of both. We recommend you book this reef trip on your first full available day. You then have the opportunity to be flexible and change your travel date if you wish. Your booking can be changed at no additional cost directly with the operator once you are in Cairns. Prebook and secure your booking, but relax in knowing you can make amendments at no charge.

Amazing tour, so much fun and the staff were incredible. Very attentive, friendly and helpful. It's just a shame they charge so much for pictures. $86 for 3 pictures is pretty disrespectful considering how much the experience costs. Otherwise it's great!

We had a great time! Booked the introductory dive. Please if you get sea sick don’t be brave take a motion sickness tablet. It was a bit rough on the way out (being a seafarer it wasn’t rough for me at all). The team encouraged guests to come and get motion sickness tablets several times before starting off and I kid you not over half the boat was vomiting. I’ve never seen so many vomit bags being given out and I worked on ship! Vomit all over the bow of the boat the poor crew who have to clean that up. Anyway! Do yourself a favour and take the antisickness. We went to all three outer reef dive sites. We were all split into groups for our dives ours being the second site which I thought was probably the best to dive in due to the towers of coral. The dive was safe although a bit rushed compared to some of the other intro dives I have done in other countries. We also couldn’t swim independently we had to hold hands and the instructor held on to two people. Which again I understand as we spent 10 minutes going over skills. They had a professional photographer which was great although warning expensive. 1 digital photo $36. He took such good ones we couldn’t not buy the five best ones he took of us for $106 but you get 30 reef pictures included in that and its all air dropped to you there and then. The first dive site was our favourite. We saw a 1.5m long reef shark then a ray and all these cute squid. There was just so much to see and explore. None of the sites we went to were crowded it was just our boat at every site which was really nice! Toilet on board was the cleanest marine toilet I have ever used. All these cute squid staff and super friendly and informative. Food was amazing and just kept coming. Cheese focaccia sandwiches and muffins for morning tea. Pork curry and veg and chickpea curry (which was amazing), prawns, chicken drumsticks, plain salad, greek salad, pasta salad, bread rolls and fruit for lunch. Afternoon tea the best chocolate cake I have had for a while! Carrot cake and cheese and biscuits. They also had water refill. Very well organised day. Lots of space on the boat never felt too crowded. Cherry on top seeing a humpback whale on the boat trip back to Cairns! Would definitely recommend booking! Thank you.

Fun day! Love that we went to 3 sites - each with different things to see. The last stop was the best on our tour, so be sure to not give up on the cold waters! Yes, the reef is not as vibrant as advertised in all the ads for Australia, but it was still great to see the shelves of reef, the many types of corals, and the sharks (no turtles this tour, but they do see them sometimes). The crew was great & safety was top priority. My mom & I snorkeled while my son scuba dived. Loved that this felt like a higher quality cruise, so not a hundred kids running crazy or tons of flippers in your face. Very well organized, highly recommend!
