Great Barrier Reef Adventure Shore Excursion in Airle Beach, Australia
Enjoy morning tea and coffee while traveling 2 hours to the Outer Reef by catamaran. You’ll then step aboard a pontoon designated for your exclusive use, which conveniently offers an underwater viewing chamber to see beautiful coral and the magnificent array of fish without getting wet.
At the pontoon, choose from several activities included in your package.
- Step aboard a semi-submersible ride for breathtaking views of colorful fish and intricate coral reef gardens.
- The inviting aquamarine waters provide a tempting attraction for those wishing to swim with a mask (snorkel, mask, fins and flotation devices are provided).
- Optional scuba diving and escorted snorkeling tours are available at an extra charge, as well as an assortment of souvenirs.
While enjoying the reef, a buffet lunch will be set onboard, as well as coffee and tea. Soft drinks, Australian wine and beer will be available for purchase.
Following approximately 2 1/2 to 3 hours at the pontoon, your catamaran will make the 2-hour return journey back to the ship.
ご注意:There are limited security lockers available on the catamaran and pontoon. It’s suggested that you bring along a credit card or Australian cash for purchasing optional items.
