Reef Daytripper is a modern 12m-sailing/motor catamaran, which departs daily from the Marlin Marina in Cairns. The vessel is licensed to take a maximum of 25 passengers, however the day is about relaxation so passenger numbers are restricted to no more than 20.
You can choose freely between snorkelling, diving, or just relaxing on the bow nets. Look out for dolphins, turtles or even whales (seasonal June - Aug).
Upolu Reef lies at the edge of the Great Barrier Reef, now a protected world heritage site. You will have over four hours to visit two reef locations at Upolu and be amazed by the abundance of colourful marine life, lovely coral and giant clams.
In the relatively sheltered reef lagoon you will see: striped fish, giant clams, sea turtles, spotted fish, rays, sea stars, an abundance of fish, nudibranchs, and lots more colourful fish!
A marine naturalist will help you to identify them and tell you something of their lives in the reef community.
No other operator in this category can offer you this superb personalised service, which normally is only available on a privately owned yacht.
Whether you choose to snorkel, dive or simply relax in the shade, the Reef Daytripper crew are happy to provide a professional, friendly and personalised service.
