Cairns Great Barrier Reef Snorkel and Flight Adventure
Great Barrier Reef snorkeling
It was really nice to see a part of the Great Barrier Reef!! The guides took us on a boat and explained what we needed to do before we went snorkeling. It took around an hour to get to the snorkeling place and then it was 1,5 hours in the water and another hour back. Unfortunately, I got sea sick and had to go back to the boat early but the guides and staff were super kind and helpful about it. And even though I couldn’t see everything there was to see, I still had a great experience! My flight was unfortunately cancelled due to the weather, but the experience for snorkeling was really cool and the guides took pictures of everyone!

40-Minute Great Barrier Reef Scenic Flight from Cairns
Amazing flight over the great barrier
A beautiful experience. The flight departed on time. The pilot was doing comments about the differents views . The meet point ( the centre office) is not close to the city center so probably is easy to grab a taxi or a bus with time.
