Check in to the Deep Sea Divers Den’s Reef Quest catamaran at 8.00am, at Cairns’ Marlin Marina. This luxurious vessel is appointed to cater to introductory and experienced snorkelers and divers, providing an amazing day tour to the Outer Great Barrier Reef. As one of Cairns longest running snorkelling and dive operators, Deep Sea Divers Den has a choice of 17 reef destinations they can visit and the two you will explore during your snorkelling day tour, will have been carefully selected that morning to provide the best conditions and viewing available that day. All destinations are positioned on the Outer Great Barrier Reef and provide excellent underwater visibility, superb coral formations and abundant, colourful fish and marine life. At Norman Reef, you are almost guaranteed to see Wally, a giant 1.5m Maori Wrasse. All snorkelling equipment and tuition is provided and as Reef Quest is a custom built boat, entry and exit from the water is completed comfortably, via a semi-submerged dive deck at the rear of the vessel. A tropical buffet lunch is included in your ticket price and features cold cut meats, a selection of salads, breads and fruits. Tea, coffee and chilled water is provided throughout the day with alcoholic beverages available for sale from the bar. Reef Quest returns to Cairns around 4.30pm, giving you time to shower and refresh before dinner.
