Highlights

  • Discover the Incredible Great Barrier Reef
  • Enjoy a Delicious BBQ Lunch
  • Experienced Snorkeling Guides
  • Relaxed Cruising Experience

Your experience begins on board the luxurious 'MV Reef Goddess'.

Sit back, relax and soak up the amazing scenery as we make our way to the Great Barrier Reef on a comfortable 1.5 hour cruise.

At our first snorkelling location, our friendly team will provide you with a briefing and ensure your safety and enjoyment at the reef. Guests will have an hour to explore beautiful untouched reefs and our guides will be on hand throughout the experience.

We will then head on a short cruise to another snorkelling location where our onboard chef will serve you with a delicious BBQ lunch served alongside fresh prawns, salads and fresh tropical fruit.

After lunch it will be time to take to the crystal clear waters again and enjoy another hour of exploring the reef and seeing a vast array of colourful marine life.

After a fascinating day, we’ll head back to Dunk Island and then transfer back to Mission Beach on the Mainland.

No experience is required and non snorkelers in your group are welcome to relax on the boat whilst you explore the reef.

A truly magical day trip that will allow you to discover Australia’s iconic Barrier Reef, the largest living structure on earth.

Great Snorkeling

We had a really good time with Mission Beach Dive. The reef was beautiful, although we had bad weather. The crew does their best job to give everybody a good time.

An amazing trip you'll never forget :)

The tour was wounderful and takes you directly in the heart of the reef, where you can see a lot of beautiful fish and corals. But most important - the Mission Beach Dive crew was fantastic!! Everybody was so kind and welcoming and created a friendly atmosphere on board- many, many thanks :)

Great Experience

The crew was exceptional. From the check-in, to the safety brief, to the trip to the reefs, all the members were very helpful and professional. The food for lunch was delicious and plentiful. And the locations provided for the snorkeling were excellent!
