One of the best days exploring the reef!!!
Highly recommend Calypso Reef Cruises!! My partner and I had one of the best days exploring the reef. It was absolutely stunning! Also the staff were so lovely, fun and accommodating and provided great insights. The day was planned out so well and ran seamlessly. Would 100% recommend and would do the tour again myself.
Great to see a beautiful part of the amazing Great Barrier Reef
Great to see a beautiful part of the amazing Great Barrier Reef! Calypso ten is a great cruise and the crew is so good! They made it (and yes I’ll use the word again) an amazing day! Special thanks to Marc, my Dive Master, made 3 great dives with him. Book this cruise with Calypso for a great experience!
What you can expect
Experience the beautiful Great Barrier Reef with a snorkel and dive cruise departing from Port Douglas. Aboard a luxurious and comfortable catamaran, you'll venture out from the mainland to one of the best reefs in the region, Agincourt Reef. This reef is regarded as one of the best and most significant sites in the entire Great Barrier Reef and with this day cruise you'll be able to head below the surface and explore this magical space for yourself.
You'll be treated to a full day of adventure, relaxation and education - with interpretive reef talks and guided snorkel tours included in the day tour. You'll also be given access to all snorkelling equipment such as wetsuits, lycra suits and prescription masks. In addition to this, you'll be treated to tea and coffee throughout the day as well as a morning tea, a tropical buffet lunch and afternoon tea on board the vessel.
If snorkelling isn't enough, you can get kitted up and venture into the deeps with a diving expedition (optional extra), for a more in-depth look at the chosen reef for the day.
Tours depart the Reef Marina in Port Douglas at 8:45am and return at 4:30pm, so you'll have an entire day exploring the reef and cruising around this beautiful part of the world. If you're looking for an awesome day out on the Great Barrier Reef with food and equipment included, then this snorkel and dive cruise is the way to go!

Great company to do the outer reef with
Great company to do the outer reef with. Pickup and drop off at the hotel, comfortable vessel and well organized with divers/snorkelers. Equipment provided was in good condition and the lunch plentiful along with endless tea, coffee, snacks. Highly recommended.
