Embark on a Great Barrier Reef day trip from Cairns with Divers Den and experience the vibrant, diverse underwater world through snorkelling, it's the perfect way to explore the reef up close.
Your adventure begins with a scenic 90-minute boat ride from Cairns to the Outer Reef, where you'll be able to snorkel at some of the most breathtaking reef sites. You’ll have up to 4 hours to explore the reef and experience two incredible sites.
We’ll carefully select two of the top reef sites based on the day’s conditions, with incredible spots along the rich and diverse Norman, Saxon, and Hastings Reefs.
On your day out on Sea Quest, you'll have the chance to witness a stunning array of marine life, from vibrant tropical fish and beautiful coral formations to turtles and the occasional clownfish (Nemo). With Divers Den, you’ll travel in comfort on our modern vessel, and choose to relax on the deck or in our comfortable lounge area, and enjoy a delicious lunch during your day.
Please note: Sea Quest is a transfer vessel offering snorkeling excursions only, and on the return journey, we’ll make our way to our liveaboard vessel, Ocean Quest, where we’ll dock at around 2:00pm for a smooth transfer for those guests embarking or disembarking from the liveaboard. The transfer takes about 30 minutes, and then we’ll continue our 90-minute journey back to Cairns.

Great trip with a very profesional crew, much of fun, very good food & wonderful schnorkeling spots!
Amazing trip and amazing scuba diving experience. Great for newbies - they can feel safe under the guard of well trained instructors.
I did another reef daytrip via bookme which was slightly cheaper but in comparison this trip with Divers Den was just better all round. The staff were great, the boat and equipment were better and the reef sites visited were amazing. Would highly recommend tbis
Great experience!!! The crew was really nice, and the experience offered was incredible. We book the trip the day before, and we had no problem with the confirmation email. The boat offered all the stuff needed for snorkeling and also coffee and meal was offered the entire day. Good experience!

Croisière bien organisée
Mieux que ce que j'attendais de ce genre de tours. Nous étions environ 60 mais pas serrés. Equipe très sympa, très bien organisée dès le départ. Matériel prêté de bonne qualité : combinaison, masque, tuba, palmes. Bon buffet, et ambiance calme sur le bateau et fun en même temps. Malgré le temps un peu agité nous avons vu des choses magnifiques sous l'eau, dont une grosse tortue.
