Tour Information

Experience the magic of the Great Barrier Reef in half a day!

Tusa Reef Tours makes experiencing the Great Barrier Reef easy. Board our safe, stable vessel, relax during your cruise to the Outer Reef, and enjoy up to 2 hours on the Great Barrier Reef, with plenty of time to snorkel and explore. Then return refreshed and ready for the rest of your day in Cairns.
Our half-day snorkel experience is designed for travellers who want to experience the magic of the Great Barrier Reef without committing to a full-day tour. Enjoy the vibrant coral gardens of Saxon and Hastings reefs, colourful fish, and crystal-clear waters, all in a safe and relaxed setting.

Tusa Reef Tours offers a chance to fully immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring wonders of the Great Barrier Reef. We believe in not just visiting the reef but in preserving and enhancing its beauty for generations to come.

Our recently refurbished vessel has a dedicated and well-informed staff, making your journey truly memorable. Experience the adventure of snorkelling and sailing on the Great Barrier Reef with Tusa Reef Tours. From the moment you step aboard, our highly trained and knowledgeable crew will be on hand to ensure you have an exceptional day on the Great Barrier Reef.

Your journey to the outer reef will be a 90-minute voyage, during which you’ll enjoy a full briefing from our crew on the activities for the day. With up to two hours of snorkelling on the reef, your captain will select the most favourable site with the best conditions for snorkelling, nestled within the Outer Great Barrier Reef.

Whether you are a seasoned snorkeller or a beginner, our guides will be there to assist you every step of the way. They will point out the best spots to explore and help you identify the vibrant marine life that surrounds you.

After snorkelling, relax on the sun deck as you return to Cairns. Optional additional lunch boxes can be pre-purchased for consumption on the return journey back to Cairns. Light snacks can also be purchased on board.

Try An Intro Dive!
