Moore Reef & Fitzroy Island Full Day Cruise from Cairns

from A$337 per person

8 hours 30 mins

Enjoy a full-day cruise from Cairns to Moore Reef and Fitzroy Island, featuring snorkelling, glass-bottom boat tours, buffet lunch at Zephyr's Restaurant, and time to explore rainforest trails and pristine beaches. Experience Australia's Great Barrier Reef and Fitzroy Island adventure in one action-packed day.

Embark on a thrilling full-day adventure from Cairns with Sunlover Cruises to Moore Reef and Fitzroy Island, where you can snorkel and explore two of Australia's most iconic destinations. You'll start with a comfortable 1.5-hour catamaran journey to the Moore Reef Pontoon on the Outer Great Barrier Reef, perfect for diving into crystal-clear waters teeming with tropical marine life and colourful corals.

If you'd prefer to stay dry, enjoy the spectacular underwater world from a semi-submersible tour, a glass-bottom boat, or through the underwater observatory. Experience the excitement of the 30-metre spiral waterslide or opt to upgrade your adventure with guided snorkelling, a Seawalker helmet dive, or a scenic helicopter flight.

The journey continues to Fitzroy Island, where a premium buffet lunch awaits at Zephyr's Restaurant. After lunch, spend your afternoon unwinding on white sandy beaches, swimming in turquoise waters, or wandering through rainforest trails for a closer look at the island's natural beauty.

This unique combination cruise allows you to experience both the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef and the enchanting Fitzroy Island in one seamless day, making it ideal for travellers seeking excitement, relaxation, and the very best of Tropical North Queensland.
