The best way to explore Australia’s Great Barrier Reef is by going on a Reef Cruise and immerse into this gigantic underwater world. The UNESCO World Heritage-listed reef stretches 2,000 kms along Queensland’s coastline and is the largest living organism on our planet. For several decades this magnificent eco system has been endangered by environmental damages and climate changes with its effects on the oceans and its inhabitants. Thus a visit to this fragile nature reserve requires a sensible and respectful approach.
Reef Cruises
Local operators are offering a variety of eco friendly tour packages.
You can go on a snorkelling tour and experience coral cays and sea-life vividly in only two feet deep tropical waters, or get a deeper insight on a scuba dive with professional equipment and instructors. Even those who wish to keep dry may view the reef and its spectacular beauty by semi-submersible boat or underwater observatory.
On your 5 hours trip to the outer reef a friendly bord staff will assist you and provide the catering so that this experience will be the most outstanding of your holidays.
Please contact Paradise Lodge for further details on bookings.
