Step aboard a 35-metre luxury superyacht for a full-day Outer Great Barrier Reef adventure from Cairns. Begin your day with tea, coffee, and morning tea as you cruise in comfort toward two exclusive reef moorings carefully selected for their pristine coral and abundant marine life.
Spend up to five hours exploring the reef with all snorkelling equipment provided, along with professional instruction for beginners. Jump into the crystal-clear waters to swim alongside colourful tropical fish, vibrant corals, and maybe even a sea turtle.
Back onboard, refuel with a chef-prepared barbecue lunch featuring fresh prawns, fish, steak, salads, and bread. In the afternoon, enjoy more time at the second reef site before cruising back to Cairns. On the return journey, relax on deck with a complimentary glass of wine accompanied by cheese and biscuits.
With a qualified, friendly crew ensuring safety and comfort, this luxury superyacht tour combines indulgence, adventure, and the natural wonders of the Great Barrier Reef for an unforgettable day on the water.

Excellent tour guides, very safe transport and always kept the reef safety in mind Amazing vegan food options for those needing it
Everything was amazing, the trip was well organized, everything was well explained, the food was very good. I really enjoyed the day on the reef. The staff were generally very helpful and friendly with an exception of Aaron, who was a bit rude.
Best thing we did in Australia. Lunch was delicious and catered to my allergies of gluten and dairy which can often be tricky! All staff on boat was kind and helpful. Both snorkelling spots were great! Don’t miss out and sign up
I booked the snorkel and discovery dive – and it was truly fantastic. Mike was a very knowledgeable and empathetic dive instructor and made me felt safe under water. The crew on board was kind and very respectful with each other. Unfortunately the sea was quite rough and a few people got sick. I recommend checking the weather conditions before booking if you tend to get sea sick.
Lot of time for snorkeling. Two reef sites and experienced team.
We had two great stops, with lots of sea life, swam beside turtles, saw a reef shark, dog tooth tuna and got a great photo with Wally the massive Māori wrasse
Awesome! Had a lovely time snorkeling at two locations. Got some scones and muffins before departure and a buffet lunch between the two sites. All equipment was provided by the crew. Recommend bringing two towels. Only comment is that the guy in charge for the day talked a lot, in great detail, about seasickness. To the extent that if you were to be someone who needed to buy seasick tablets, you did not have time because he talked about it for so long that that 20 min window closed. So bring your own tablets if you’re unsure!
