Reef Fly & Cruise Combo - Reef Magic

Highlights

• 20 min scenic helicopter flight from Cairns
• 4-5 hours snorkelling or diving on the reef
• Glass bottom boat & semi-submersible
• Activity platform perfect for families

Description

Instead of taking the traditional 1.5 hour boat ride to get to the reef, fly overhead on a breathtaking helicopter ride that will enable you to marvel at incredible aerial views of the unparalleled Great Barrier Reef. From the minute you take off, soak in jaw-dropping panoramas of this inimitable World Heritage listed area. View intricate coral formations from above as you soar over the cerulean waters of the Coral Sea and try to spot rays, sea turtles, reef sharks and schools of fish.

Choose between getting to the reef via a helicopter flight and then return via a cruise on the ocean (fly snorkel & cruise combo) or taking a cruise to the reef on Reef Magic and then taking a flight back (cruise snorkel & fly combo). Upon your arrival at the reef, you will proceed to the Marine World Platform, which will be the site at which you have lunch and from which you can enjoy a variety of aquatic activities including snorkelling, swimming, riding in a semi-submersible craft and riding in a boat with a glass bottom, all of which are included in the ticket price. Scuba diving for both beginners and advanced divers can be enjoyed at an extra cost. End the afternoon with a relaxed cruise that takes you back to Cairns.
