Choppy, supportive and then Amazing

The trip was choppy and the Captain informed us about this so took hyosine for this. My 4yo daughter did ok but felt awful. The crew are supportive and supply vomit bags for those why arent well. Once you get there the rough is over and you can view the great barrier reef. The team is amazing supporting you and your family and also with the meals and then the snorkelling. They cannot control weather but support you through it

What you can expect

Enjoy a wonderful balance of Great Barrier Reef scenery and convenience with a tour from Cairns to an activity platform on the reef for several hours of fun in the sun and sea. On this Cairns to pontoon full-day trip, you'll have approximately four hours to explore the marine life and coral reefs of the Outer Great Barrier Reef from the Moore Reef pontoon. Be amazed by the underwater beauty as you snorkel, slide down the onboard waterslide, or join a glass-bottom boat and semi-submersible tour. To recharge, you'll be treated to a delicious buffet lunch before diving back into the adventure.

Heading to the platform, you'll travel in luxury onboard a modern and spacious air-conditioned catamaran, which departs daily from the Reef Fleet Terminal in the centre of Cairns. With all snorkelling equipment and necessary inclusions required, you'll have everything you'll need for a memorable day of exploring Australia's greatest natural wonder.

Nice trip, but tight schedule

Overall is good, but the schedules are too tight if you want to do snorkeling, helicopter, the boat, and lunch. Almost impossible.
