Overview
About This Tour
Ninety minutes past the tourist pontoons, the outer reef drops into the Coral Sea — coral gardens, turtle cleaning stations, and visibility that feels like flying.
Our marine-biologist guides keep groups to eight, brief every site, and find the small stuff: pygmy seahorses, nudibranchs, and reef sharks cruising the wall.

Tour FAQs
Do I need to be certified?
For the dive package, Open Water or equivalent. Snorkellers join the same boat on every trip.
What if I've never dived?
Try our resort-dive add-on: a pool session then a shallow guided dive with an instructor.
When is visibility best?
June to November brings calm seas and 30m+ visibility on the outer reef.
