Your Cairns Dive Centre Outer Great Barrier Reef diving day tour kicks off at 7.00am, when you check in and board the M.V. Reef-Kist at Cairns’ Marlin Marina.  Your tour includes two certified dives, which can be completed at two separate dive destinations during the day.  Pending conditions, you will visit two of several sites, all of which offer amazing dive opportunities.  A few quick features are as follows: Milln Reef has a depth ranging from 12 to 22m with small, numerous coral bombies; Thetford Reef boasts swim throughs, a sloping bottom and coral bombies; Briggs Reef has a 33m wall drop off, gutters, swim throughs and a flat bottom directly underneath the boat; Moore Reef has a few gutters but is known for its flat and sloping bottom and abundant coral bombies; Elford Reef has a few swim throughs and gutters and a lot of corals; Sudbury Reef has swim throughs on coral bombies and a few gutters; finally, Channel Reef, which is on the very edge of the Great Barrier with strong currents, has great corals and bomboras, but access is limited to calm days with little or no tides.  A tropical buffet lunch is included and if you have had enough diving, enjoy a quick snorkel.
