Sample Itinerary
Day 1:
12:30pm: Board your small ship cruise at Breakwater Terminal for a 1:00pm departure. Departing Townsville, we cross Halifax Bay, passing close to Magnetic Island before cruising amongst the spectacular Palm Group of Islands. In the evening, join our crew and travelling companions on the top deck as the sun spectacularly sets over the reef.
Day 2:
This morning we awaken moored beside your very own tropical island, Pelorus. Enjoy our beach BBQ, freshly prepared by the Captain. After breakfast, explore the surrounding rainforest on a guided nature walk or enjoy a guided snorkelling tour, glass bottom boat excursion or SCUBA dive. Cruising northward, discover the towering island cliffs and mangroves of the Hinchinbrook Channel and the Family Group of Islands. This afternoon we visit Dunk Island Resort where there is time to relax by the resort's pool, or join a guided rainforest walk.
Day 3:
Enjoy a full day to discover Nathan Reef. Snorkelling, glass bottom boat rides or SCUBA diving all await you.
Day 4:
Anchoring off Thetford Reef and Sudbury Cay we enjoy our final opportunity to snorkel over the reef. Join our Marine Biologist for a glass bottom boat tour over the colourful coral gardens before gathering on the snorkel deck to participate in a fish feed. Discover some of the 1500 species of tropical fish that call the reef home, including Spangled Emperor, Giant Trevally and the Hump-Headed Maori Wrasse as they are hand fed by the Marine Biologist. Early this afternoon we cruise through Trinity Bay before arriving in tropical Cairns at 1:30pm for disembarkation at Trinity Wharf.
