Visit Duration

The recommended visit duration is the full 6-hour cruise to experience all activities, including snorkeling, beach walks, and dining. If short on time, prioritize the guided snorkeling tour and marine biologist beach walk for the most enriching Great Barrier Reef experience.

Accessibility

The island terrain is natural sand and coral with uneven surfaces, making it challenging for wheelchairs, though mobility-impaired guests can be assisted by crew for beach activities.

Combined with the romance of sailing aboard a luxury 30 metre sailing catamaran, this is the perfect day for families and couples seeking island relaxation. From the moment we moor in the calm waters of the island’s picturesque lagoon, a host of reef activities await. Our friendly crew will take you on a leisurely, informative day where island visitor numbers are limited. Discover the mysteries of marine life in a glass bottom boat tour or while snorkelling over coral gardens alive with turtles and brilliantly coloured fishes. Take a guided beach walk and snorkelling tour with a marine biologist or just relax on the beach under a thatched umbrella or on the decks of the boat. Your day also includes a delicious tropical buffet lunch.
