Great Barrier Reef Full Day Adventure

From $295 PP

About The Tour

Departing either Port of Airlie, Daydream or Hamilton Island, cruise through the gorgeous Whitsunday Islands to our permanently moored Reefworld pontoon, located 39 nautical miles from shore at Hardy Reef. Jump right in with a snorkel and explore the reef, or if you’d prefer to stay dry, head to the underwater observatory or take a guided semi-submarine tour. Complete your Reefworld experience with a delicious buffet lunch and, as the day fades into sunset, you’ll head home with lifelong memories of one of the world’s natural wonders, the Great Barrier Reef.
