How do we collect reviews?
Your journey begins from Cairns aboard a medium-sized catamaran, cruising out to the outer reef’s Moore Reef, known for its clearer waters, vibrant coral gardens, and abundant marine life. Step onto a newly rebuilt pontoon, designed for smaller groups so you can explore without the crowds.
Certified guides provide detailed tips before leading optional guided snorkelling sessions, letting you discover colourful reef residents at your pace. With up to five hours on the reef, mix relaxed snorkelling with semi‑sub rides for a different view beneath the surface.
In between, unwind over a tropical buffet lunch and tea breaks, and join interactive eco-presentations to learn what makes the outer reef so unique. The smaller group size means personalised attention, easy access to premium gear, and space to truly enjoy the surroundings. You can also upgrade your day with a guided snorkel or introductory scuba dive for an extra splash of adventure.
