Reefsleep is a two-day/one-night encounter with the Great Barrier Reef – an intimate, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to sleep under the stars. Exclusive Reefworld at Hardy Reef is your destination – a permanently moored pontoon, located 39 nautical miles from shore on the outer Great Barrier Reef. Swim, snorkel, dive and explore this amazing natural ecosystem.

HIGHLIGHTS

Your journey begins with a cruise to the outer reef through the gorgeous Whitsunday Islands – keep an eye out for migrating Humpback Whales between July and September. Out on the reef, go swimming and snorkelling, ride in a semi-submarine and visit the underwater observatory – followed by a generous buffet lunch. Optional upgrades include guided snorkel safaris and scuba-diving.

After the day-trippers head back to shore, the pontoon and the reef are exclusively yours. Enjoy a sunset drink before your evening meal is served on deck, featuring fresh and delicious local produce. Afterwards, head for the pontoon’s top level and slip into your cozy Reefbed– it’s just you, the ocean and a galaxy of stars.

Dawn on the reef is peaceful and unhurried. There’s time for some more snorkelling after breakfast – the reef is all yours to enjoy – or return to the underwater observatory and watch the reef come to life. After lunch, your Cruise Whitsundays vessel returns you to the mainland. Your night on the reef may be over, but your Reefsleep memories will stay with you forever.

Sample Itinerary:

Snorkelling 

The Cruise Whitsundays Reefworld pontoon is adjacent to coral walls, the length of which you can explore by snorkelling as much as you like during the day! It has its own ecosystem with magnificent corals and a diversity of marine life found only in sheltered areas. The Hardy Reef is a unique world for you to explore and the prolific fish life will surprise and delight you especially… the Giant Groper!

Starlit Alfresco Reefbeds

The only outdoor sleeping vessel in the Whitsundays, Reefsleep offers guests their very own alfresco, luxury Reefbed! With a clear viewing panel, soft linen and a super comfy mattress, fall asleep under a clear starry sky while enjoying the gentle sea breeze! Bugs and mosquitos aren’t a problem when you’re 40 nautical miles at sea, so leave the cover open to immerse yourself in the Reef charm like never before… just you, the sea breeze and the brightest stars for a true glamping experience!

Underwater Observatory

Discover the wonders of the reef and stay dry with Reefsleep's underwater aquarium observatory! An educational and delightful view from below allows guests to spot colourful fish, magnificent mammals and more from a completely new angle!

Semi-submersible Glass Bottom Boat 

Explore the depths of the reef like never before with this immersive and educational experience! Where fun and reef learning meets, the Reefsleep glass-bottom semi-submersible will take you through a spectacular reef that is home to vibrant creatures big and small. Learn something new about these extraordinary ecosystems with the educational commentary (interpreters available).

Reefworld Pontoon 

Spend your day aboard the Reefworld pontoon with access to an abundance of things to do, whatever your style! Grab a good book and champagne and hit the day beds for a sunbake chill-out session.
