Explore one of the wonders of the world, the Great Barrier Reef.

Your day starts with a 25-minute scenic flight to the outer reef departing from our Helipad conveniently located at the Cairns City Esplanade. On your way you will enjoy stunning panoramic views extending from the tropical rainforest to the azure waters of the Great Barrier Reef, looking out for turtles, dolphins, manta rays, large schools of pelagic fish and even potentially majestic Humpback Whales in season.

Reef Magic’s activity platform is a stable, all-weather base allowing visitors to explore the reef in comfort. Snorkel, scuba dive, helmet dive or stay dry and visit the underwater reef observatory for an informative talk from a local marine expert. The semi-submersible is a great family activity providing views of the reef from below the waterline without setting foot in the water and includes live commentary. Your experience concludes with a cruise back to Cairns.

  • All snorkelling equipment and instruction for beginners
  • Glass-bottom boat and semi-submersible tours
  • Underwater observatory and eco reef talk
