Educational and fun, this exciting half-day excursion starts when you meet your skipper and board a high-speed motor-raft.
The adventure begins as you cruise through the natural beauty of the stunning Whitsunday Passage to either Black Island or Hook Island, accompanied by your knowledgeable eco-guide.
Australia's Great Barrier Reef can be seen from outer space and boasts 2,900 individual reefs, 600 continental islands and 300 coral keys. It is half the size of Texas and will take your breath away. An eco-guide will be on hand to tell you more about the reef's marine life, encouraging you to keep your eyes open for sea turtles.
Those looking for adventure can listen to some basic instruction tips and a safety briefing; then, join a guided snorkel along this spectacular reef. Afterward, you can swim in the turquoise ocean, relax on the white sand beach, or explore the island on foot.
