Great Barrier Reef: Snorkelling Tour from Cairns + Lunch
About this experience
Spend five hours engaging in water activities at two distinct sites on The Great Barrier Reef.
Snorkel over coral gardens where anemones, sea whips, clams, and plate corals host clownfish, angelfish, and batfish.
Observe large schools of giant trevally, red bass, and sweetlip swimming between bommies. You might also spot turtles, cuttlefish, rays, and sharks.
A guide will explain its significance to the local indigenous tribes, including the Gimuy Walubara Yidinji, Gunggandji, Mandingalbay, and Yirrganydji people.
Learn about their stories and connection to the reef. Refresh with morning and afternoon tea, and have a buffet lunch during the trip.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
