Quicksilver Pontoon

If you wish to see the Reef without having to spend the entire day in the water, then this is the cruise for you. You will be joining one of the big catamarans, and spending the day on a pontoon on the Outer Barrier Reef. Your day includes your transfers, your snorkelling equipment, your hot/cold seafood buffet lunch and the use of these different activities...

Semi Submersible coral viewing

If you would like to stay dry, then you can explore the stunning reef from the comfort of a Quicksilver sub.

The semi submersibles cruise slowly through the colourful coral gardens giving passengers, seated just one metre underwater, the opportunity to experience a snorkellers-eye view of the marine life without getting wet.

The semi-sub experience takes approximately 25 minutes and includes an informed commentary on the marine life observed during the journey and an overview of the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef. Semi-subs depart every fifteen minutes from the rear of the platform. Anouncements are made to prompt you before departure.

Underwater Observatory

You can also see the coral and watch the fish feeding from the unique viewing platform and underwater observatory located directly in front of the platform. From here, you can also view "first time" divers taking part in introductory dives.

Adult price $199 (Australian dollars)

Additional Costs : Introductory Dive $ 134

Certified Dive $ 92
