With more than 100 ways to explore the Great Barrier Reef, Tropical North Queensland offers unrivalled access to the world’s largest coral reef system. Stretching over 2,000 kilometres, the Reef features 3,000 reefs and cays, 1,600 fish species, 600 types of coral and some of the most stunning tropical islands on Earth.

From Cairns, Port Douglas, Mission Beach or Cape Tribulation, daily tours cater to every budget and interest. Snorkel, scuba dive, sail, island hop or join a liveaboard for overnight adventures. Try a glass-bottom boat or semi-submersible, enjoy marine presentations, or relax with a tropical buffet lunch.

For something extra, soar over the reef on a helicopter flight, parasail from an island, dive with Minke whales or witness baby turtles racing to the sea. Half and full-day island trips also offer rainforest walks, calm-water snorkelling, watersports and plenty of time to relax. No visit is complete without experiencing this awe-inspiring natural wonder.
