1 Day Great Barrier Reef Diving Trip With Silverswift From $338pp
Firstly, this vessel is the fastest boat in Cairns…
In short, this means you get more time to explore three different exclusive dive and snorkel sites located on the Outer Barrier Reef. You’ll zoom past the other boats and be the first to reach the reef. Expect to experience exquisite underwater coral and reef formations, home to thousands of tropical fish and marine life. In total, you’ll get five hours of actual reef time – more than the rest.
You can make your day extra special by adding in an Introductory or certified scuba dive. This can be selected below. Alternatively, if you’d prefer to do this trip as a snorkeler then check out their snorkel day tour.
This super fast catamaran is also equipped with onboard computer stabilisers to provide a smooth passage to the Outer Reef. If sea sickness features on your list of worries, then this could be perfect for you. Healthy and delicious eats featuring morning tea and fresh focaccias and muffins, followed by a five star quality hot and cold tropical buffet and cheese and crackers platter for the way home (for those still feeling peckish).
Top of the range snorkel and diving equipment along with exceptional guides and marine experts make for one hell of a reef experience. The Great Barrier Reef is a must do, once in a lifetime kind of experience. We recommend you do it the best way possible so look no further than Silverswift.

What is the best way to travel Australia?
There is definitely no wrong way. We recommend either taking a WHIMIT or Hop on Hop off bus pass such as Greyhound or renting a campervan with some mates and hitting the open road. If you feel like getting pretty adventurous and want to get amongst the true Australian terrain, a 4WD may be better suited for you. Enquire now and we can help you find the most suitable transport option.

We get it. Life is all about the unexpected, especially when you are travelling.
