Itinerary
Day One
Day one begins when we’ll pick you up from your accommodation in Cairns and take you out onto the Great Barrier Reef via picturesque Fitzroy Island.
Just before 10am, we’ll arrive at our first reef site where we’ll enjoy a spot of lunch before you can take your first snorkeling session. You’ll get up close and personal with the reef’s native marine life and enjoy the scenery from a different perspective.
We’ll then transfer to the second snorkel site before dinner, where you can tuck into a delicious hearty meal before bed.
Day Two
It’s an early start at 5.30am on day two, where we’ll jump right into our first diving session of the trip before breakfast. We’ll then make our way to the second reef site for some more snorkeling fun.
After that, it’s time to refuel with a tasty lunch before we hit up our third reef site of the day before dinner.
Day Three
It’s another 5.30am start on the final day, where we’ll take you out for your last morning snorkel session before breakfast. After refueling, we’ll head to the second snorkel site and then quickly on to the third.
After this, it’s time for lunch and then we’ll make our way back to Cairns via Fitzroy Island.
