Dive the best of the Great Barrier Reef and Coral Sea in just five days!
The Great Barrier Reef stretches for 2,500 kilometers off the Queensland coast, longer than the distance from Maine to Florida. Like coral reefs everywhere, it is in danger, but all is not yet lost! Along those many miles of outer reef, there are numerous beautiful coral-covered dive sites with little to no sign of bleaching. But you won't visit those reefs on a day trip from Cairns. You have to invest the time to experience the best, and a liveaboard can take you there.
Spoilsport catamaran will transport us to the excellent diving north of Cairns at the Ribbon Reefs and Cod Hole, as well as the clear deep waters of the Coral Sea far offshore. Our mixed LGBTQ+ group will join other guests on this exciting special five-night departure that allows more time to visit the rest of Australia.
You will need to have logged five dives within the 12 months prior to this expedition. If you've been out of the water for a bit, why not join us in Fiji for four days as a warm-up on and break up the journey down under?
Don't hesitate - make 2025 the year you visit Australia and dive the Great Barrier Reef!
