A WORLD HERITAGE-LISTED WONDER

From your island resort, simply step onto the beach and snorkel or dive to explore the mesmerising outer reef. Out permanently moored pontoon provides a range of activities, including snorkelling, scuba diving, heli-scenic flights and semi-submarine tours.

Taking a cruise ship to take a day trip to the Great Barrier Reef at sea is the main way for guests to visit the Great Barrier Reef. Guests can manage their own time at sea and focus on the free activities. Whitsunday Cruises' one-day trip to the outer barrier reef Reef World allows you to take a luxury cruise ship to a man-made floating platform on the Great Barrier Reef, where you can swim, use snorkelling equipment for free, ride a semi-submarine for free, and go to the underwater observation room. Enjoy a buffet lunch and afternoon tea.

There are two offshore floating platforms (Reef World) located in two different coral reef areas. You'll visit one of them, but no matter which floating platform you go to, you can appreciate the wonder and beauty of the coral world. The high-end floating platforms have rest areas and many exciting water sports. The floating platform also has tables and chairs under an awning, a deck for sunbathing, fresh water showers and changing rooms. You can also board an air-conditioned cruise ship at any time to feel the comfort and coolness in the cabin. There are endless ways to explore the coral world. You can watch it from the underwater observation deck, take a semi-submersible boat to explore the seabed, or snorkel like a fish and get up close and personal with the corals!

The underwater observation deck with a 360-degree panoramic view of the seabed is fascinating and you can linger there as much as you want. It also has informative posters, photos and names of various fish species. Add some excitement to your trip with our value-loaded package. Enjoy activities (not included in default ticket) such as 10-minute helicopter tours, diving, sea walking, water jets and more! We also provide an exclusive VIP treatment package for helicopters to fly directly to the outer reef platform (30 minutes one way). Please call us for any enquiries, we welcome you.

  1. 超级值的行程套餐,可以分不同的两天,带娃儿也绝对不会累

    性价比非常高的行程套餐,预定之前,特别感谢工作人员Yuna贴心周到的讲解,帮我们设计性价比最高的路线跟安排。
    我们白天堂沙滩是下午去的,完全可以睡到自然醒,并且根大堡礁行程隔了一天,正好可以利用那天休息调整一天。不会感觉太赶跟疲惫。
    大堡礁出海晕船药必备,工作人员也会给大家发冰块含在嘴里,缓解呕吐感,午餐是buffet,也有morning tea根下午茶,咖啡热茶管够,虾特别的新鲜,沙拉也很好吃,虾的补充也很及时,又大又新鲜,米饭一般般,不是亚洲人喜欢的短米。如果不想下水可以找snorkeling safari,有教练带着小团队离开人群去稍远处肤浅,全程大概45分钟,特别适合我跟老公这样的旱鸭子,俩娃儿跟着教练去浮潜我们美美的看风景吃午餐。FIT Travel Yuna 还介绍了fly&cruise ,土豪们可以考虑,目前价格是$630/adult &$580/kid,直升机30分钟,船去直升机回,或者直升机去船回,逆天美景,白沙滩高处看特别像薄荷奶昔,窒息的美。从2017年第一次找FIT travel预定到现在,团队靠谱踏实,服务周到,小到是否要自备午餐,帮父母订是否可以乘坐快艇,服务品质一直在线,体验一直非常的棒。并且是澳洲本地的旅行社,更加叫人安心放心。
