Great Barrier Reef Snorkelling & Helicopter Ride
Great Barrier Reef Snorkelling & Helicopter Ride
Let's kick things off right as we board a yacht and set sail for the Great Barrier Reef, one of the most famous and breathtaking places in Australia.
We'll drop anchor at a first reef which, depending on the tidal conditions, could be Norman or Saxon. You'll have between 1.5-2 hours to snorkel in the crystal clear water and see the multicoloured fish, starfish, manta rays, sea turtles and other marine animals that live below the water's surface.
When we're all back on the boat, you'll have a delicious lunch on board. You'll have a barbecue meal consisting of fresh fish, prawns, beef and a selection of salads. A glass of wine is also included in the lunch menu.
Our next stop will be Hastings Reef, where you'll have around 1 hour 30 minutes of free time for more snorkelling. Afterwards, we'll take you to a platform from which you'll go on an exhilarating helicopter ride over the Great Barrier Reef. During this 10-minute helicopter ride, you'll be able to admire this incredible natural wonder from above and take lots of photos.
After an unforgettable experience, we'll sail back to the port arriving about 8 hours later.
