Discover the magic of the Great Barrier Reef with a full-day cruise from Cairns aboard Reef Magic’s fast, stable catamaran. Depart directly from Cairns Marina and enjoy a smoother ride and shorter travel time, giving you more hours to spend at the reef.
Your destination is Reef Magic’s spacious, all-weather activity platform, designed for every activity level. Snorkel in a sheltered coral lagoon, join a marine biologist on a guided snorkel safari, or take the plunge with a scuba dive — no experience necessary. For a unique underwater adventure without getting your hair wet, opt for a Helmet Dive and walk along the ocean floor.
If you’d prefer to stay dry, admire the reef from a glass-bottom boat or relax on the sun deck while soaking up the tropical warmth. A delicious buffet lunch is included, giving you the perfect break between adventures. With flexible activities, expert guides, and stunning reef scenery, Reef Magic offers one of Cairns’ most versatile and memorable reef experiences.

Super cool experience and the reef was beautiful to see up close. I’d do it again.
Fantastic experience! Snorkeling, glass bottom boat, semi submersible, great lunch, onboard science projects, fish feedings and a very comfortable catamaran trip to the Great Barrier Reef!
Thank you Reef Magic for a wonderful and informative day.
We had a wonderful trip to the reef with so many options once we got to Marine World.
Excellent crew, facilities, coral, fish and turtles. Highly recommend this tour.
Staff were fantastic, all optional extras very reasonably priced!
The crew were really helpful in explaining all of the different activities you could do on the day. The marine biology talks were interesting and the snorkel tour good fun. If you get the chance to do helicopter flight do it, it was a fantastic way to see the Reef.
